Penticton to host first Pride Prom
Description
May 17, 2019
Grad season has arrived in the Okanagan, and while many fuss over what they're wearing or who they're going with, others simply skip prom because they can't be themselves.
It has prompted a group of South Okanagan teens to organize the community's first ever pride prom.
As Doris Maria Bregolisse reports, organizers are defending the event's exclusivity.
