In our mission to connect, develop and serve our Knoxville, YPK celebrates the diversity of our beautiful city and encourages inclusiveness and acceptance of all. YPK members [and friends] are invited to show their support for our diverse members and community by walking as a group in the Knoxville Pride Parade.
Members can wear their YPK shirts and are welcome to accessorize for the occasion. Celebratory signs are encouraged! We ask that all participants remember that they are representing YPK, so please keep signs PG and refrain from any remarks, verbal or written, that show any intolerance for any particular affiliation, political or otherwise.
The parade staging area is at East Jackson Avenue and Patton Street, [starting at 9:30am.] Free parking is available in that area but is limited.
