🌈It’s that time of year!

Summer is coming to a close here in Northern Michigan and we are preparing to host our annual Pride Week from September 22nd - 26th!

🏳️‍🌈Pride Week was born out of necessity during the pandemic and has become a beloved way to celebrate together as the bulk of the region’s busy season winds down.

Pride Week has a variety of events over five days so keep an eye out this week as we announce each event with details about the times, locations, shoutouts to sponsors, volunteer needs, and more.

BIG thank you to our Wellness Sponsor for Pride Week Thomas Judd Care Center and to ALL our Proud Crowd sponsors (see our website to see them all!!)
