The theme of the Parade is "Over the Rainbow" and our theme-within-a-theme is "We are Full-Spectrum" to emphasize that the Trans community are a diverse group of people with a full-range of gender and sexual identities. Shown to the left is the design of this year's Ingersoll Pride T-Shirt. More details at the bottom of the story.
The Parade officially kicks off at 11AM on Fourth Avenue near Westlake Park, downtown Seattle. As soon as we are informed about our parade placement and time we will update our information here and provide contact . Expect an arrival and rally time of around 10AM.
Ingersoll has participated in the Pride parade festivities for many years now. Last year was a big success with great participation and great energy. We are looking forward to upping our turnout and energy this year and we have a fun new theme T-shirt. We will supply t-shirts free-of-charge for all RSVP-confirmed parade attendees and hopefully have a few extras. If you have special size requests, please RSVP using the link below and send email to breanna[at]ingersollcenter[dot]org by June 14 to ensure delivery.

Ingersoll Tabling at Pride Rally
Ingersoll will have a booth at this year’s Pride Rally event at Seattle Center in cooperation with Gender Alliance of South Sound (GASS). Volunteers to staff the booth are also needed for setup, tabling and breakdown. This can be a great gig if you have limited mobility or simply don’t like to walk for miles. Have a comfortable, covered place to sit, visit and people watch!
