DECORAH PRIDE TO TAKE PLACE OCTOBER 7-9th, 2021

 

(DECORAH, IOWA) – October 7-9th, 2021 – Decorah Pride announced that the Pride festival and parade will take place in Decorah starting on Thursday, October 7th through Saturday, October 9th. Pride is a celebration of people of diverse sexual and gender identities and expressions. Decorah Pride is open to all through the greater Decorah area who are part of or supporters of the LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer-identifying) community. Because there will be a large number of people gathering close together, the Pride committee requests that masks be worn, even for outdoor events.
