Outside Pride

June is going to be busy and Truro Pride Society have some amazing events lined up.

Warm up with our hike on Sunday June 21st at 10am

It is also Father's Day so bring any family members you wish to join you.

Quick preview of next week's hike. The sign-up form will go live this afternoon for this lovely 6km hike in Truro!

We did a final check of the route this morning to make sure it works for a group hike... and we think it does!

Stay tuned for the sign up form and we will also email out details.

Our next hike will be on Sunday June 21st. We are just finalizing the route but it will be a "bring your family" event as it is on Father's Day.

Bring fathers, father figures, mothers, kids, friends or other allies!

It is the week before Pride week in Truro - so a nice warm up for the festivities to come.

Outside Pride receives no funding from any level of government, business, or organization. Just members of the community getting outside and having fun.

It was a beautiful day for a hike. Due to injury we were without our chief navigator and so we managed a slightly longer than planned hike of 7.9km!

Today is International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia. Avoid hate of all kinds every day.

I have just sent out the meeting details for tomorrow's hike to everyone who registered. Check your junk/spam folder to make sure we did not get put in there!

Looks like it is going to be a lovely morning for a hike! See you tomorrow.

The weather is looking GREAT for our Sunday hike in Victoria Park!
