Boerne's PRIDE Walk is sponsored by Touchstone United Church of Christ, the local chapter of PFLAG, and Kaleidoscope Hearts, a local LGBTQ+ youth organization. The event is staged each year as a show of solidarity for the LGBTQ+ community of people. PRIDE matters because everybody should feel comfortable and safe being themselves wherever they are. It is an opportunity to show diversity in the Boerne community. We celebrate in June to coincide with the catalyst of the Gay Liberation Movement that was the Stonewall Uprising.
