East-Central Minnesota Pride

East-Central Minnesota Pride is the yearly celebration of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) residents of East-Central Minnesota. It is just one of two prides held in a rural community in the U.S. The celebration is generally held during the first weekend in June in Pine City, Minnesota.

Famous quotes containing the word pride:

    A whole village-full of sensuous emotion, scattered abroad all the year long, surged here in a focus for an hour. The forty hearts of those waving couples were beating as they had not done since, twelve months before, they had come together in similar jollity. For the time Paganism was revived in their hearts, the pride of life was all in all, and they adored none other than themselves.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
