As it has now become tradition, the Community Pride Parade will be held for the fourth year in a row. This year, Pride festivities will lead up to Saturday, June 15: the day of the Community Pride Parade.
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, and the shutdown of social gatherings on a global scale, Mr Max, one of the Club Penguin Armies founders, helped orchestrate the first Community Pride Parade in 2021. Ultimately, the effort was to bring together those who were longing for a sense of community, regardless of sexuality. The event was a large success, thus spawning annual Pride celebrations.
Pride may be considered the “gay” month but, at its core, it is a month to celebrate one another and all the different colors we come in. It is a great time to remind ourselves to be kind to one another and remember the Platinum Rule:
Treat others how THEY want to be treated.
To ensure inclusivity, the Community Pride Parade will be coordinated from the Discord server. We will begin on Battleground, at the Town, then move to the Ice Berg. Finally, we will transfer to Club Penguin Journey to paint their island rainbow. Everyone is most welcome to join us in the main chat and the voice chat there!
🏳️🌈 Community Pride Parade 🏳️🌈
Saturday, June 15
Server: Battleground
Community Meeting Room: Town
2pm EST | 1pm CST | 12pm MST | 11am PST | 6pm GMT
Town will serve as the meeting room for community members. If you wish to attend as an army, feel free to choose another room for the gathering. We will be contacting the leaders in the following days to discuss the organization of the event.
At the start of the parade, we will all move to another room for some joint tactics. This year, our goal is to create a star shape. We won’t spend too much time on tactics though, as this will be followed by everyone’s favorite Pride-themed fashion show (winners will get exclusive roles in the Discord server). Other Pride festivities this year will include Pride-grams in the Discord server starting June 8.
We would like to encourage all armies to invite their staff and troops to participate in the Community Pride Parade by scheduling events in their servers and sharing the news. To ensure that everyone can participate, the administration will uphold a ceasefire on Saturday, June 15. This means no war battles can take place on the day of the parade during any time zone.
Many thanks to Master DS and Superhero123 for providing the Pride-themed rooms on Battleground. Thank you to Community Committee Heads, Aubz and Frickle, for their help in ensuring things go smoothly this year. Last but not least, thank you to all of you for supporting Club Penguin Armies and being true to yourselves. Last year’s Community Pride Parade witnessed over 80 individuals attending, ranging from various armies. Will we be able to succeed in making a rainbow star?
