Mid-South Pride
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mid-South Pride is a non-profit corporation located in Memphis, Tennessee. Mid-South Pride was founded in May 2004, to take over the work formely done by Memphis Pride. Mid-South Pride produces the annual Gay Pride Parade, Festival and Picnic for Memphis as well as other events that reflect the history of Pride in the GLBT community.
Mid-South Pride is led by a 9 member, unpaid, board of directors and relies on volunteers and community support to product the annual gay pride events. One of the major elements that separates Mid-South Pride from other pride organizations is the requirement that all events must be paid in full, so that the organization never takes on more than it can actually pay for.
Mid-South Pride is members of the International Gay Pride association, Interpride, and members of the International Festival and Events Association. IFEA
Mid-South Pride, Memphis Pride, and the Mid-South Pride logo are all owned by Mid-South Pride. Their use here has been with the permission of current board president, Gary Wilkerson.
