🕠 5:30–7:30 pm
📍 Seven Hill Park, Hays, KS

Bring a dish, bring a friend, or just bring yourself - we can’t wait to see you! 🌈💜

🌈💖 A huge THANK YOU to everyone who showed up and walked with Hays Pride in the Wild West Fest Parade this year!

Your presence mattered. Every step we took together was a step toward visibility, acceptance, and love - not just for ourselves, but for every LGBTQ+ person in our community who needs to see that they are not alone.

In a world where simply being seen can still be an act of courage, your choice to walk with us was powerful. Pride is about celebration, but it’s also about showing up loud, proud, and together. We’re proud to be part of a community that believes in inclusivity, visibility, and support for all.

From the bottom of our hearts: thank you for walking, waving, smiling, and standing with us. Let’s keep showing up - for each other, for Hays, and for love. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
