Join TES as we return to the NYC Pride March! All TES members are welcome to join: gay, lesbian, straight ally, bisexual, queer, trans, intersexed, asexual, questioning, leather, bear, or anything else under the sun! We will be announcing additional details as information becomes available. Here’s what we have so far:
Group Name: TES (The Eulenspiegel Society)
Section: 9
Group Number: 20
Staging Area: 40th Street between Park & Madison
Section Opens: 2:00 PM
Check-In Time: 3:30 PM
Please enter the staging area from Park Avenue. Note that 5th Avenue will be closed to crosstown traffic bellow 42nd Street. Please be at the staging area in time for check in, but note that this is not our guaranteed step off time. While the March itself takes roughly 2 hours to complete, please be prepared for delays, and that participating may take up to 6 hours. Anyone who arrives early is asked to respect the March route-wide moment of silence at 11:58 am.
Our group leader, Zero, will be identifiable by the teal Group Leader Shirt he will be wearing. Those wishing to march with us are highly encouraged to purchase a TES Pride t-shirt for the event ($20, covering our cost of making them plus our contribution to Pride). Street legal fetishwear is also acceptable, but please be mindful of the weather and marching conditions, so comfortable shoes are suggested. Please bring sunscreen and appropriate weather gear, and no more than a small bag or fannypack (larger bags might be a problem for security). Come well fed and hydrated. Water stations will be available for marchers.
Import Note: This years march will be televised live on ABC, nationwide. While we encourage everyone who can to participate, you should know that in doing so you are consenting to the possibility of being seen on TV.
We will also be updating our Twitter account live from the event. Follow us at @TESKink, and always know where to find us! You can also follow the March at @NYCPrideMarch
Anyone interested in marching should please contact zero@tes.org for more information.
Unable to march? Consider sponsoring a marcher by purchasing them a t-shirt, or by donating $5 toward our contribution to NYC Pride.
