🌈 What a weekend. What a community. What a PrideFest. 🌈
To everyone who attended Woodstock PrideFest—thank you. Thank you for showing up, celebrating loudly, supporting local businesses and organizations, cheering on parade participants, dancing in front of the stage, creating art, sharing your stories, and helping make this year's PrideFest one to remember.
To our incredible volunteers: you were everywhere all weekend long—setting up before sunrise, directing traffic, handing out information, hauling supplies, keeping things running smoothly, and staying until the very last tent came down. You are the heartbeat of PrideFest, and we simply could not do this without you.
To our sponsors: thank you for investing in this community and helping ensure that PrideFest remains free and accessible to all. Your support makes these moments possible.
To our vendors, nonprofits, entertainers, parade participants, and community partners: thank you for bringing your passion, creativity, and energy to the Square. You helped create a space where people could connect, learn, laugh, and celebrate exactly as they are.
To the faith communities who stood beside us and opened your hearts in affirmation and welcome: thank you for reminding people that love and acceptance can walk hand in hand with faith.
And a very special shout-out to two of the hardest-working people at PrideFest—our incredible ASL interpreters, Caden and Makeda. From opening remarks to performances and everything in between, they kept the energy high, the messages clear, and helped ensure that PrideFest was accessible and welcoming to all. Their talent, stamina, and dedication did not go unnoticed, and we are so grateful for the care they brought to this event. ❤️🤟
Finally, to everyone who played even the smallest role behind the scenes—whether you donated, shared a post, lent a hand, offered encouragement, or simply showed up—please know that you helped create something extraordinary.
PrideFest may be over for this year, but the spirit of Pride doesn't end when the tents come down. Carry it forward. Continue to choose kindness, celebrate authenticity, and stand up for one another.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making Woodstock PrideFest a beautiful reflection of the community we know we can be.
Until next year -June 13, 2027... keep shining. 🏳️🌈✨💙💚💛🧡❤️💜
