As the Hamilton Pride festival was happening around him on Saturday afternoon, after a parade that started at Rotary Park and traveled to Marcum Park, Taylor Stone-Welch was asked what it meant to see the large crowd.
âI actually get kind of emotional when I think about hundreds of people, maybe 1,000 people right now, at Marcum Park for a Pride event in Hamilton,â said Stone-Welch, board chairman of Hamilton Pride. âItâs pretty amazing.â
