Pride Festival

First UU SA will have a table with the Pride Center.

First UU SA is again collaborating with the Pride Center San Antonio & Latino Outdoors to table under the porte-cochere/awning in front of the Pride Center (located at 1103 McCullough Ave, Ste. 160). The Pride Center will function as a resource center as well as a cooling station area. If you have ever been to San Antonio’s Pride Celebration, you know how hot it can get and how necessary a cooling station is.

We would like to invite folks who are interested to sign up for 2 – 4-hour shifts. Even though the event lasts until 7pm, we will start breaking down our table soon after 4 pm as the events begins to shift to preparation for the parade that evening.

Joedy Yglesias, our Rainbow Inclusion Chair, will be there for the duration (beginning at 10 am for set-up). If you would like to volunteer for tabling, please email him at rainbowinclusion@uusat.org to get you on the schedule:

10 am – 12 noon:
12 noon – 2 pm:
2 pm – 4 pm:

Ideally there will be 2 volunteers for each of these time periods. Any amount of your time is appreciated.

Parking will be a challenge, so any alternative means you can use to get there (park elsewhere and Uber in, bike, get a ride, etc.) is recommended.

We would also like to give folks the opportunity to check out the event in the park if they care to (there is a $15 admission fee at the gate, which we will NOT be inside the perimeter of.) We will have an igloo cooler full of ice water and a cooler of canned drinks (to minimize the use of single-use plastic), but you are also encouraged to bring your own reusable water bottles in the spirit of environmental consciousness. 🙂
