The Sonoma County Pride Planning Committee is seeking volunteers to help us plan, promote, and raise funds for Sonoma County Pride 2009 which will be held during the week of Sunday May 31st through Sunday June 7th. This year’s theme is “EQUALITY ON MAIN STREET”.

This week-long event will include a Pride Parade through Guerneville, an LGBT Festival on the grounds of Dawn Ranch Lodge, and an AIDS Remembrance Interfaith Service. A host of other Pride related events & parties will be happening throughout the week and around Sonoma County, including Pride Comedy Night at the Wells Fargo Center for the Arts. We welcome your ideas for events and activities to celebrate Sonoma County Pride Week.

We encourage people of all ages and ethnicities to become involved in the planning or production of this annual Northern California pride event, so that it reflects the diversity of our community. There are many ways to become involved, including planning activities and helping at events.

If you are interested in joining the Sonoma County Pride Planning Committee or in volunteering to help at or host/sponsor any Pride events please email us at [email protected]. Tax-deductible monetary and in-kind donations are another valued way to show your support.
