On Saturday, Portland lit up with joy, color, and community as thousands gathered to celebrate Portland Pride. The parade burst through Congress Street with energy and excitement, leading to a lively festival at Deering Oaks Park full of music, dancing, and community love. Sweetser staff even got to pose for photos with Slugger – the Portland Sea Dogs’ mascot and Director of Crowd Entertainment!
The fun continued at the festival, where Sweetser was joined by other nonprofits, wellness groups, activist organizations, and local businesses, contributing to the feelings of unity, togetherness, and collective Pride.
