It’s the 13th anniversary of Peterborough Pride this year, and Arthur is in on the action! The first Peterborough Pride was held in 2003 after then-Mayor Sylvia Sutherland proclaimed September 16th official Pride Day. From the beginning, Pride in Peterborough was spearheaded by the students of Trent and Fleming and it is for this very reason that Peterborough Pride continues to be held in September. Pride organizer Rick Lambert stressed the idea that celebrations are held this time of year so that students can participate in the festivities as they have since its inception.
