The best place to park is at Meridian mall in Stony Plain, then it’s a quick 5 minute walk south down 50th street, and an 8 minute walk along 49th avenue where the parade assembly is! We will be lined up along 49th avenue!

Pride Events 
Since the Edmonton Pride Parade was cancelled, I have put together a list of Pride events by town/city, to the best of my knowledge. You will be able to link to their pages here. In Stony Plain alone we will have TWO Pride eventsand our GSA will be walking in the Stony Plain Rotary Parade for the 2ndyear in a row! Please consider supporting all of these smaller venues AND donating to their fundraising efforts! Also, they absolutely need Parade walkers! 
 
Have a Happy Pride!

FRIENDS of the GSA –We NEED fabulous people like YOU!!!
 
We absolutely need help!
We need Parade walkers for June 1stfor our Stony Plain Rotary Parade! Please come dressed in Pride gear, or colourful shirts, or whatever you are comfortable in. But come and support our GSA!!!
https://www.facebook.com/events/356863781603479/?ti=icl All of the details are linked to our Facebook page!
 
We also have a Pride event which we are co-hosting with the Multicultural Heritage Centre on June 15th! Please join us or help volunteer for a game! There will be a ton of cool things to do. Face paint, glitter tattoo’s, a deck dance, button making, games, etc… https://www.facebook.com/events/2235426773362133/?ti=icl
 
Some of the ways you can fabulous:
Please: Donate food to our youth GSA meetings or grocery store gift cards, craft items, monetary donations, click on the donate buttonon our website, spend time with us at different events (bottle drives (collect bottles and donate the money to the GSA account online), GSA meetings, parades, resource fairs, etc)
Contributions of any size will be used to support youth through the purchase of materials that will be used at our meetings, as well as to fund excursions to special events within the community. They will also support the GSA Society as a whole by helping us with operational expenses such as liability insurance and equipment. We are a 100% volunteer-run organization; all funds will go to ensuring we can continue to offer services to youth.
We will appreciate and put to good use every donation we receive and, more importantly, your donations will contribute to making youth understand that they are welcome in and supported by our community.
 
 T-Shirts/Hoodies?
 
I am looking at pricing for t-shirts. This is a sample of the new shirt. It is just the logo so our kids can wear it anytime without having the GSA lettering attached to it. These are through VistaPrint and available on a single purchase only. We do not have to order large quantities. Please connect with me if you are interested at sprucegrovegsa@gmail.com
