Dignity/Washington rocked the Capital Pride parade with a float decked out in colors of the Gay flag. Add to that a spirited music soundtrack that featured “Salve Regina” and “I will follow him” from Sister Act and “Like a Prayer” from Madonna. Put all that on the back of a truck, and you have one raucous Gay Pride party float. No one rained on this parade as the Dignity/Washington contingent was acknowledged along the parade route for its ministry to LGBT Catholics since 1972.
A huge thanks to Larry Ranly, master builder of the float, and Vin Testa, music director, for organizing this year’s Capital Pride marchers and float. Everyone had a Capital Pride experience that will long be remembered.
After the parade, the Dignity/Washington float was covered on NBC 4 in Washington, DC. Click on the link below to view the video.
