We commend the Sleepy Hollow Village Trustees for voting unanimously to allow the Pride flag to be flown on village property through the end of June during a special session on Friday. The flag is not merely the expression of those who embrace specific identities - but a statement of welcoming acceptance, inclusion and love. We are now calling upon the Tarrytown Village Trustees to make the same statement - and allow the flag to be flown for the remainder of the month in front of Village Hall to ensure that all residents of our community, as well as all visitors, feel accepted and welcome. Please sign the petition below if you wish to support this effort.
