With so much going on we don't want to forget to thank our sponsors for our Oceans of Pride event. We could not have pulled it off without you!

Huge shout out to SLO County Democratic Party, Big Balsz Production, and Mud Mojo for all their support.

Thank you to all those that showed up and made it the incredible event it was. You showed up to support an organization and community that really needed to see the love that is out there in these times.

And last but not least, shout out to Jade Ritter and Acro SLO for their amazing entertainment that set the tone.

In October 1998, 21-year-old Matthew Shepard was kidnapped, severely beaten, tied to a fence, and left to die in Laramie, Wyoming, because he was gay. For the third year, UCC SLO will tell the story of Matthew Shepherd so that he and other members of the LGBTQ+ community who have experienced hate and violence will never be forgotten.

The Laramie Project will be offered three times on the weekend leading up to Matthew's death: Friday, October 9th at 7pm; Saturday, October 10th at 2pm; and Sunday, October 11th at 3pm. There is no charge for admission.
Donations will be accepted and will be given to The Gala Pride and Diversity Center (https://galacc.org) as they empower people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and expressions to strengthen and unite our Central Coast community.

B**r (Heineken-Matthew's favorite), w**e, and other beverages will be available for sale. All proceeds will be donated to Gala as well.
The Laramie Project reminds us that hope can come out of tragedy. Community and understanding can come out of loss.
