Lake Area Pride

If you're not going to the big game today but are still looking for something to do, you could head over to Lake Charles as they are hosting their first ever Gay Pride Parade and Festival in the Amphitheater at the Civic Center. According to KPLC.com, the director of the event, Megan Norris, said "never before has there been an opportunity to show the Lake Area just how much support they have in Southwest Louisiana. I know that we have a strong community here. I thought that if we could just have a day of appreciation and have a day of pride that it will be visible, that our community is larger than people imagine."
