What? PrideFest to be cancelled?

The executive board of Heritage of Pride, according to reports recently, the group that runs the annual Gay Pride March and surrounding events in New York City, voted overwhelmingly not to have a PrideFest if the city would not allow it move the day and location. Now I am not sure if that is a sensible thing to do or just a strategic move to attract the Mayor's attention?

According to reports, the HOP board voted on an ultimatum: If the city doesn’t decide by May 11, the street fair will be cancelled for this year.

The www.edgenewyork.com called on those who wish to express their opinions to the mayor’s office should contact Joey Koch or Anthony Crowell, both mayoral counsels, at 212-788-8494, email jkoch@cityhall.nyc.gov and acrowell@cityhall.nyc.gov.
