Celebrating Pride at Parkland Clayton Park

July 22, 2024 Always Parkland

At Parkland, we believe in celebrating diversity and fostering an inclusive community. This year, Parkland Clayton Park hosted a vibrant Pride event featuring the raising of the Pride flag and a special performance by Shayla Shenanigans, a beloved drag queen from Halifax.

The day began with the raising of the Pride flag, a powerful symbol of support for the LGBTQ+ community. The sight of the flag waving was a reminder of the progress made in the fight for equality and the ongoing journey towards a more inclusive world.

Known for her charisma and captivating performances, Shayla Shenanigans brought an energy and joy that was felt by everyone in attendance. Her performance was more than just entertainment; it was an opportunity for education and connection.

Shayla shared, “My favorite thing is educating places that normally wouldn’t have drag. I felt nothing but love in that room. It’s about showing people what connects us instead of what divides us. I just speak on my experience, not anyone else’s.”

Our Parkland residents enjoyed Shayla’s performance and pride education. For many, it was their first time experiencing a drag show

Sharon, a resident at Parkland Clayton Park attended the drag show with a sense of curiosity and a desire to support the Pride community. She shared, “I wanted to know more about it and support the Pride family. I wanted to know about Pride and their community.”

Sharon’s openness to learning and her supportive attitude reflect the spirit of our community at Parkland Clayton Park. We are proud to be a place where residents feel encouraged to explore new experiences and broaden their horizons.

The Pride event at Parkland Clayton Park was a celebration of love, acceptance, and community. It was a reminder of the importance of embracing diversity and supporting one another. We are grateful to Shayla Shenanigans for sharing her talent and wisdom with the residents and team members.
