Orange County will bring you a fun and safe, Halloween-themed fundraiser presented in the safety of your home.

Pride organizations from across America have come
together to create the first-ever Pride Stride. For the first time ever, over 30 Pride organizations are joining to commemorate National Coming Out Day while providing an uplifting, fun, and safe virtual event for LGBTQ communities across the nation during these challenging times. This year a majority of Pride organizations had to cancel or dramatically scale back its celebrations, and this event is helping bring the com- munity together. It’s not a race, so everyone can do it. Choose 5k or 10k and then run, walk, dance, prance or roll at your own pace, anytime between now and Saturday, October 31. Or join them on National Coming Out Day, Sunday, October 11. A portion of your Pride Stride registration fee will help support San Diego LGBT Pride and their mission to create safe and inclusive spaces for LGBTQ communities in the San Diego area. Register now and get your official Pride Stride race bib, swag bag and other cool stuff. Come out. Get out. Be out.
