Come out and help us create the biggest pride event Little Rock has ever seen!

We are holding Board meetings on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of each month at the Main Library in the Fribrough Room Downtown Little Rock from 3pm-5pm.  The meetings are open to the public and if you would like to come down and help shape your Pride then please join us.  Just remember though that only Board members can vote, but all idea’s and creative input will be welcome.

Well we are working hard to bring Pride back to Little Rock in 2009.  It will happen on Sunday June 7, 2009.  It’s being held again this time at the River Market Pavillion in Downtown Little Rock.  Mark your calendars and come celebrate Pride with the rest of us.

We are holding Fundraiser’s all the time.  I will keep you in the loop on here for when our next one is in a seperate post but check back often to see when our next one is and come out and support Pride 2009.

The board of Little Rock Capital Pride is officially announcing that we will not be producing a Pride event in 2008. Unfortunately, we were unable to get a quorum of members (7) to serve on our board. It was felt that three board members, who all serve in leadership roles in other GLBT groups, would be unable to perform all of the tasks required to plan the event. After the tremendous success of Capital Pride ‘07, we were quite surprised that more individuals did not join us so that we could build on our successes. It is our hope that the absence of a Pride event will spur the local community into action. We are planning a picnic/barbeque in June so that we can discuss future plans and recruit volunteers for next year. In July, we will hold elections for next year’s board and I encourage anyone who is interested to send an e-mail to joe@lrcpride.org to express your willingness to serve. We are optimistic that Pride will return to Little Rock and look forward to the community’s support.

Yours in Pride,
Joe LaFountaine, President
Little Rock Capital Pride
