The GLSO GSA organized and produced our sixth Pride Prom on May 18th. One Hundred teens from Lexington and surrounding counties had a great time dancing and socializing at a new location this year.
We rented the Children’s Theater where the floor had been recently painted purple with stars scattered throughout. Our theme, Off To Neverland, blossomed from that floor and we hosted several Tinker Bells, at least one Peter Pan and a gaggle of no-longer-lost boys. A wonderful venue for a great evening.
Applause to the youth who helped create this event for themselves and their friends. Thanks to all members of our community that turned out to chaperone, run the lights and music, and generally help us provide this experience for our youth.
The GSA now begins it’s summer program, Drugs, Sex, and Rock and Roll: How to make informed decision that are right for you. Donations to GLSO are welcome to help us provide books, pizza and other treats for youth attending our summer programs.
