After several big-name donors pulled out, The Pride society requires about 200 parade marshalls for this year's 30th anniversary parade. Otherwise they may be unable to hold it next year.

I say if you're going to Pride anyway, being a Marshall means that you get the best seat in the house. And if you have any suggestions for future parades, volunteering is a fine way to get your foot in the door. And if your friends are Marshalling, this is a good way to hang out with them.

Here's the form.

See y'all there*

*Except Ruby. She's in Manilla**

**As if that's an excuse

(and fill out the survey if you have time)
