Description
Plan to come to LeClaire Park for the kickoff of QC PRIDE '09. There will be a picnic from 2 - 4 sponsored by QC Area Affirming Churches. The gathering for CARE itself begins at 4 pm.

For the 1000 flags it will take, we need at least 500 people, so please forward this invitation widely! We are asking for a donation of $5 from participants to cover cost of flags -- and you get to keep your own pride flag!

Everyone is asked to give $5 and will be able to take home the flag they held. We need ALL our allies because it will take at least 500 people to do this!
-Chicago group transportation may be arranged.
