Event: 10 Jun 2017

My name is Josh, and I am running lead for the effort to get our three groups marching i the Pride Parade. I have completed registration, the fee was $350.00 which we are hoping as a group we can raise through donations. Your members that wish to donate can do so via the kyrimorut paypal at Marylandmercs@gmail.com .
The parade organizers required us to register as one single organization, and we cannot advertise/display our individual groups. So I registered us as the MD/DC Star Wars Costume Community.
This registration allows for a single vehicle, and up to 100 walkers. I have talked to OLG leadership and we feel that a 33 people per club number is fair and if one of the clubs have less they can give extras to the others.
The parade details are as follows:
Date: Saturday, June 10th, 2017
Time: 4:30 PM – 7:30 PM
Parade Route: Dupont and Logan Circle neighborhoods, Washington, DC
Starting Location: 22nd & P Streets, NW, Washington, DC
Metro: Red Line (Dupont Circle – Q Street Exit)
Ending Location: 14th & R Streets, NW, Washington, DC
Metro: Green Line (U Street/African-Amer Civil War Memorial/Cardozo – 13th Street Exit)
I look forward to combining our groups and showing the love to the LGBTQ community from the Star Wars community.
Edit from the BCO: ABSOLUTELY NO WEAPONS!!! Leave your blasters and blades at home!! Lightsaber Hilts stay on belt hooks. This is in the Nation's Capital and we don't wish to cause any possible security issues. Also, it would just not look good to represent ourselves in such a cause and carry "weapons". Anybody seen with a blaster, gaffi, or bladed lightsaber will be asked to put it in their kit/vehicle. _________________ ~~ Joy Hargraves ~~

Josh, your efforts on behalf of the MD/DC Star Wars Costume Community (I really like the sound of that!) to march in the Pride Parade are greatly appreciated. Very much looking forward to this - should be allot of fun!
I have sent a donation for the registration fee. Thank you kindly

Ok, everyone needs to be in place at the parade between 4:15-5. The comic book store, Fantom Comics said we can arrive after 1:30-2.

I so wish I could make this. But I've got a prior commitment I can't break. I'll be there in spirit! _________________ -- Thomas G. Atkinson

Does anyone know which metro lines from PG Co are running tomorrow? Trying to figure out the easiest way down. _________________ Kellie Hendley

Kellie, all stations along the Orange like are pretty much out of service, most notably, New Carrollton. I was going to take Blue line from Largo _________________ ~~ Joy Hargraves ~~

A big THANK YOU to all who survived the Pride parade. We will not be trooping this again, but we are looking into Baltimore for next year. _________________ Kellie Hendley

Agree on both!! It was wonderful to have been able to participate. But too overwhelming. _________________ ~~ Joy Hargraves ~~
