Despite the cancellation of the 4th annual Open Door Pride Festival scheduled later this month, the LGBTQ community in Door County is still proudly celebrating National Pride Month.  On Tuesday evening, Sturgeon Bay Mayor David Ward presented organizer Cathy Grier with the proclamation declaration for Open Door Pride Month at the Sturgeon Bay Common Council meeting.  Grier then thanked the entire council during public comments and shared a memory from last year’s event. 

Grier added that Open Door Pride is a grassroots organization working within the city of Sturgeon Bay and throughout Door County, to ensure that the community is a safe and welcoming place to visit and live.
