9:30am - 11:30am - Drinks, snacks, and reverie at Lir (903 Boylston Street). Come join us for pre-parade fun and watch us figure out a way to pump up the gigantic soccer ball (always amusing!)
11:30am - 12:00pm - Walk over as a group to our designated lineup spot for the Parade. Be on the lookout for an update on our final location next Wednesday or Thursday as we won't know until then.
12:00pm - 1:30pm - POUND THE PAVEMENT. Join us this year as we proudly march in the parade. If you've never done it, it's a blast! We toss around a giant ball in soccer gear, dance to music from Boylston Street to Government Center, and represent the league we all love. See here for details about the Parade, route, etc: http://www.bostonpride.org/parade/
1:30pm - 7:00 pm - Chandler Street Block Party. Directly after the Parade we encourage as many Strikers as we can get to head over to the Block Party at the corner of Berkley Street and Chandler Street in the South End. Please note that we were not able to secure a volunteer table at the party this year, but that just means you can dance and have fun with all of us!
Final Quick Notes:
- If you are marching, we encourage everyone to wear soccer attire. We'd love if you represent the Strikers by wearing some of our swag, so let us know if you'd like to borrow a shirt, socks, etc. Have fun with it!
- Remember to wear sun screen!
- The Block Party is 21+ and admission is $15. Everything is CASH ONLY, so remember to take out some cash before the event as the ATMs always run out on Pride.
- HAVE FUN AND BE SAFE!
If you have any questions, please reach out to a board member and we're happy to help in any way. And be on the lookout for updates about Lir, our lineup position, and maybe some fun photos to convince you to join us this year!
HAPPY PRIDE STRIKERS FAMILY!
