YES!! There has been a committee formed to organize a Pride 2010 celebration in Covington. This is in no way any sort of statement about any other pride around us. Covington is an extremely gay friendly town and we just want to celebrate our own community. Not to mention, 3 of our committee members are on the Cincinnati Pride committee. I have talked to Will (aka Wolfie) and have invited him on board. 2010 will be a great pride celebration for Covington, Northern Kentucky and all of our friends from up north! Will be posting more details as they develop!Ron Padgetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16058657131543759926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233207434448612511.post-67960308757500469942009-03-19T13:34:00.000-04:002009-03-19T13:34:00.000-04:00Call was returned!Everything is straightened out!N...Call was returned!<BR/><BR/>Everything is straightened out!<BR/><BR/>Now lets look forward to Nothern Kentucky Pride 2010!<BR/><BR/>I'll be poting about it on my blog later!<BR/><BR/>Whooopie!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233207434448612511.post-16989312664481367432009-03-19T11:42:00.000-04:002009-03-19T11:42:00.000-04:00Well Mother Thnakies againI sent an email to adres...Well Mother Thnakies again<BR/><BR/>I sent an email to adress on the site and it bounced back 2x's and then I called and left a message.<BR/><BR/>I have contacted the Mayor of Covington and one of the City Commisioners and I am thinking of a tentative date of one of the first 2 weekends in June not to conflict with Cincy.

As a matter of fact, I am ALL FOR Northern Kentucky Pride in 2010 -- I am even willing to allow that it be THE regional Pride obervance next year. <BR/><BR/>I think having N.Ky. next year could be a wonderful way both to bring the N.Ky. and Cincy gay communities together, and at the same time give the change of pace many -- including the current Pride Committee -- are seeking.<BR/> <BR/>Fact is, however, there already is a N.Ky. Pride in 2010 movement. A rep is attending the next Cincy Pride meeting. They are seeking, and they will get cooperation. Amazing what a little respect for the work others are putting in will do. <BR/><BR/>But this rouge effort which seems to be all about bashing Cincy Pride and turning the community against itself -- that is what I object to. Enough poison. Let's take care of Pride '09, then move on to lend a hand to those who legitmately take up the mantle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233207434448612511.post-29978866617353425682009-03-18T18:21:00.000-04:002009-03-18T18:21:00.000-04:00Oh, no! Someone has come along and thought, "I can...Oh, no! Someone has come along and thought, "I can do that better and more effectively." Call out the national guard, it must be stopped!<BR/><BR/>Look, Pride is rooted it ANGER and PROTEST at the status quo. In 40 years, it has gone from an angry reminder of the indignities of oppression (as symbolized in the Stonewall Riots) to corporate holiday and PR stunt. If Wolfie wants to launch another Pride celebration from a sense of anger and frustration at the status quo, what's wrong with that?<BR/><BR/>You positions, anonymous, are inconsistent with your own better angels, and this dismissive attack on Wolf reeks of nothing so much as apologetics on behalf of the current Pride committee. I don't dislike the Pride committee, individually or as a group, but you seem unreasonably determined to prop them up as heroes and shield them from attack. Why are you so protective of the status quo? What do you gain from the current structure?Jere Keyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07031694741909693786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8233207434448612511.post-85498222913300267212009-03-18T16:25:00.000-04:002009-03-18T16:25:00.000-04:00I truly ecpect nothing else from someone who's suc...I truly ecpect nothing else from someone who's such a coward that they won't post their name.
