Wilton Pride and Norwalk River Valley Trail First Push N’ Pull Parade — POSTPONED
June 25 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$10 – $35
**This event has been POSTPONED**
Wilton Pride, in partnership with the Norwalk River Valley Trail (NRVT), is pleased to announce the first Push N’ Pull Parade happening Sunday, June 25, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on the NRVT in Wilton. The event will feature music, festivities, flare, ‘Best’ contests, and much more. The Parade is part of Be You, a series of events organized by Wilton Pride in collaboration with town organizations and businesses to celebrate Pride Month in June.
Start out at the trailhead on Rt. 7 at Wolfpit Road, best accessed from across from the commuter parking lot in Wilton. Once there, participants will check-in with registration, be motivated to get into the parade spirit (including a selfie booth full with props and swag), and encouraged to enter the ‘Best’ contests (details below).
Then paraders will take their Pride to the Trail!
Walk, dance, run, bike, stroll, roll, and enjoy the beautiful NRVT. The parade route leads to the parking lot at Sharp Hill Road & Autumn Ridge Drive for the next bit of fun.
Once there, participants can enjoy some treats, listen to music, and hang out. There will be an opportunity to meet new people, learn about Proud Academy, Pollinator Pathways, and different ways to support the NRVT and Wilton Pride. Also, all the ‘Best’ contest winners will be announced here!
Pride Best Dressed Contest: Make sure to Dress To Impress! Prizes awarded in the following categories:
● Best Embodiment of PRIDE
● Best Use of Color
● Best Creative Use of Flare
There will be one winner in each category. Entrants must have proof of ticket purchase to be considered in the competition.
Register online. For more information, visit the NRVT website, or email Farah Masani.
All proceeds support NRVT + Wilton Pride
