Olympia Capital City Pride 2012
Shrader said, “We’re proud that it’s still a small town Pride that’s on the cutting edge. We keep it family friendly, but it’s not a small, boring festival.” This year he says they’ll be “reaching out to LGBTQ youth more than ever.” Among the ways they will be reaching out to youth will be the inclusion of a separate youth entertainment segment. For this they held tryouts and picked seven individual performers: a singer, two spoken word artists and four drag queens.
