I am totally disappointing in what is happening with this Pride thing, Our country is already in turmoil and now you still promoting segregation all over again, this is really not needed and especially in this current time. Please tell me who are you really catering for here, the ” white” privileged, and you are doing nothing for bringing people together. I do not think that you had the – the less fortunate in mind when you arranged this Pride. When i say this i mean Black people. I think you have to look at you committee first and you will see why you have chosen Melrose. Be that as it may, hope ya’ll have your Pride and i think should also change the name because there absolutely no ” PRIDE ” at all.

I think it’s a decent place to host it but not practical to those who are less fortunate to afford to buy drinks as it’s an expensive are. I say this because i have a lot of friends who would really love to be there but because they are not working and don’t want to be a burden, won’t be able to afford drinks and other things as there won’t be any cooler boxes allowed. Next time let’s cater for the less fortunate as well. Let’s celebrate being oneself.
Safety part of it, it’s good and we’re all protected. See you there.

I am very suprised.
If i rmeber correctly the previous pride committee was dissolved because people had issue with the venues being in “rich areas: now its in Melrose Arch. Have you ever. Talk about double standards

This is so disappointing. Pride at zoolake was the best. Pride will never be the same again!

hi, I honesty like pride in a park where our people are free not at the mall, mall is for business to do shopping its not accomodating every one well please take it back to zoo lake . We miss the sun,wearing less, sitting on grass just picnic to celebrate colour because LGBT it’s all about colour and theme is orange but it will be dull wearing it at the mall not at the picnic. ….
