Led by members of the 69传媒Student Union and the Panther Patrol van, students, administration, faculty, staff, and alumni gathered together to participate in the 29th annual PEI Pride Parade on Saturday, July 29.

UPEI鈥檚 mascot, Pride, also joined the group to walk the route and greet those lining the streets to watch the parade.

This year鈥檚 event has been touted by organizers as 鈥渢he best one yet鈥� with a record 75 groups registering for the parade, including the first marching band.

The parade began at noon at the provincial government buildings on Terry Fox Drive in Charlottetown and continued down Euston Street to Great George, Grafton, and Rochford before ending on Kent Street.

Many thanks to the 69传媒Student Union, which started bringing members of the 69传媒community together in May to plan and promote the University鈥檚 participation in the parade, and to the 69传媒Alumni Association and 69传媒Faculty Association for inviting members to join in. 69传媒Student Affairs also organized a post-parade 69传媒Pride Scavenger Hunt from 2:00 to 7:00 pm in downtown Charlottetown.

Happy Pride!
