Dear Editor:
We would like to sincerely thank the community of Centre Wellington for their enthusiastic embrace of the Renegade Rainbows project!
There were over 150 residential and business addresses chalked by more than two dozen renegades, creating colourful messages of celebration and inclusion to kick off Pride Month.
Special thanks to Shoppers Drug Mart and District 18 OSSTF Teachers Bargaining Unit for their generous donations of snacks and drinks for the renegades.
Healthy communities are inclusive and when some groups are more marginalized than others, it’s our responsibility to ensure everyone feels seen, valued and celebrated.
Centre Wellington stepped up to this plate in a big way!
Diane Ballantyne and Rev. Ann Turner,
Fergus
