ABOUT PAGAN PRIDE DAY

Pagan Pride Day was first brought to Oklahoma in 2004. This was Oklahoma's first Pagan Pride Day, and while being hosted in Tulsa, there was support from throughout the State. There were over 150 people in attendance and we hope to at least double that figure for 2005! Pagan Pride Day is now sponsored by The Oklahoma Pagan/Heathen Alliance. It is open to anyone with a desire to come together in peaceful understanding of the world's diverse religious backgrounds. Pagan Pride Day is a great opportunity for those who wish to see more of the various Pagan and Heathen Paths that are available. It is not JUST for Pagans. It is for anyone who wants to learn more and who is promoting tolerance and diversity.

Good point, Caffiend. I had PMed Rick about that earlier, when his profile said he was still on, but missed him by a hair (or maybe a slice of bacon.) I was wondering the exact same thing!

Where does this leave our PPD Dragons? _inabox_

nope--OPHA is doing it this year. OPHA is a alliance of pagan leaders here in Tulsa and surrounding area. (of which, I'm just one of the leaders being represented)

I needed the help. They helped me out alot last year, as well. And the PPD dragons will be on my table--ready to be ordered!!!

Well, I hope I can still be a vendor. I just got a reply not too long ago. I'll have to mail my money I guess and cross my fingers. I have a lot of new stuff to show off.

PPD was a blast. I suspect those who ran it are still recovering. Thanks and congrats to everyone.
