Dear Friend,

On behalf of Lower Adirondack Pride, I’m reaching out with both an invitation and a challenge: join us in shaping a North Country where every LGBTQIA+ person is free, safe, and celebrated.

Each year, our Lower Adirondack Pride Festival in Glens Falls City Park fills downtown with joy, resilience, and unapologetic pride. In 2025, more than 10,000 people gathered to stand in solidarity with our community — and 2026 promises to be even bigger. This Festival is more than a party. It’s a rally, a beacon, and a bold declaration that LGBTQIA+ people belong here.

But Pride doesn’t end in June. Sponsorship fuels our year-round, life-saving work: supporting youth in crisis, advocating for equal rights, saving lives through outreach, and ensuring that LGBTQIA+ people in Warren, Washington, and Northern Saratoga counties never face their challenges alone. Sponsorship also carries forward into our annual Gayla, where we gather in purpose to raise critical funds to sustain this work.

By sponsoring Pride, you’re not just attaching your name to an event. You’re sending a clear message that you believe in dignity, equality, and community. You’re telling thousands of people — and especially young people — that they are not alone.

This is your moment to step up, get on board, and stand with us. Together, we can ensure Pride is more than a festival — it’s a movement.

With gratitude and determination,

Cam J. Cardinale (he/him/his)
President
