What better way to kick off our Extraordinary Day OUT than marching with Peace Corps and RPCVSF in a big, bold, colorful parade? Starting at 12pm on April 10, 2016, the length of Ocean Drive along the Art Deco district will be closed to traffic and open wide to our proud South Florida lesbian, gay, bi, and transgender families, our friends, co-workers and allies-- along with Pride sponsor organizations, groups and businesses.  https://www.miamibeachgaypride.com/parade


Peace Corps Marchers are meeting in the park on the corner of  5th Street across the street from TGI Fridays at 10AM.

 

The parade will begin promptly at 12:00 PM starting at the corner of 5th Street and Ocean Drive but groups have to be registered no later than 1030AM. Bring snacks to share as we will have a mini potluck as we prep.

 

Miami Beach Gay Pride will be awarding the best entry in the parade for encompassing the most creative approach in the spirit of Pride. Besides being announced as the winner at Pride in front of a mass audience, the winner will be acknowledged on the Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade plaque at Miami Beach's LGBT Visitor Center. This will be on display for the community to see for years to come. Do you think you have what it takes to bring home this prestigious recognition? We hope you’ll bring it! Feel free to dress up, wear comfortable shoes, and even bring a flag of your host country. Let's celebrate the inclusivity of Peace Corps!
