Awwww!!! Darn it anyway! I missed last year's Conway Pride cause I didn't know (or even begin to THINK!) that Conway AR would have a Pride celebration. I had moved here a few months earlier, and really believed that there were next to no LGBT peeps here! Whoda thunk?

Grrrrrr

I just want to say that I'm not from Oklahoma. But every time I see the word or hear it mentioned, I have to sing the song. Either out loud or just in my head. So, I just thought I would share that with you. Now if you don't mind I'll be off to go sing.

This will be my first Conway pride.

I'll be going to Lake Overholser to fish on mom's day and the fishing is free, no license required.
Anyhow, I'll let you all know how it is there.

I'd like to know if we're still on for the 1st Sunday in June, otherwise I'll make other plans for that weekend.

It won't work out for me, unfortunately

I've been getting a lot of pressure to attend the Conway Pride events here that weekend. If you all are going to schedule the OK gathering on another weekend, I could attend BOTH! (and whoever said I wasn't a greedy girl just does not know me!)

I'm down for another weekend if that means more people will be there.

WolfyOne · 05-07-2012, 06:09 PM

I'd reschedule without a problem.

If I had the money and the means to get to Conway that Sunday,
I'd take the 5 hour drive there, but I have to be at work the following day.

Then come on Saturday, hit the Pride festivities with us early in the day, then head back mid afternoon, you would get back in plenty of time to get to bed early. That way, you could spend time with all of us central AR peeps. I know we could find a place for you to crash here! (hey, I have a couch that is plenty comfy!)

As for the money, I could chip in for your gas costs, and I bet we could get some more to chip in too. PLEEEEEZZE? I need a Wolfy fix!
