Pridefloat

[Gaston]

Pridefloat might interest GLBT in the Midwest, especially if you're not making Pennsic. It's an annual canoe float/camping trip near Lebanon, MO (I-44, close to Springfield) on July 15-18, 2011.

Price ($35/person) seems high for the area until you factor in the camping--then it's about right.

This year the theme is Roman Holiday. Lots of pictures from previous years at

Some of them are surprising for this part of the country (those folks "must not be from around here").

I plan to attend with friends from my local progressive radio station.

I know this seems like early notice, but this tends to sell out in May.
