BGO Pride was founded to create a local community for LGBTQ+ members and supporters here in Bowling Green, Ohio. We aim to support and celebrate a joyful life together. We’re here to host and foster our community, because everyone deserves to have the feeling of belonging. Townies, youth, families, college students, or even someone traveling through; if you value equality and kindness, you are welcome here.

Over 2,000 members and allies of our local LGBTQIA+ community came together to celebrate, laugh, cry, and dance in the name of Pride. We're honored to put on this festival every year, and we're proud to live in a city that welcomes diversity and inclusion for all people. Thank you, Bowling Green! Cheers to five years!

In the latest issue of our quarterly newsletter, we ask three members of the community what they think of Pride, their hopes for the future, and how to make a difference in our local community. We also discuss some exciting things going on in town and get a quick overview on some upcoming BGO Pride events.
