Voting for St. Pete Pride’s 2018 Grand Marshals has officially begun.
“Being named a Grand Marshal of the St. Pete Pride Parade is among the highest honors bestowed by the Tampa Bay LGBTQ community,” St. Pete Pride notes. “Individuals and organizations nominated for Grand Marshal have made significant achievements for LGBTQ rights and have made considerable contributions to the LGBTQ community at large.”
The selection process has been a community effort since 2013, St. Pete Pride says, noting all of the nominations were made by community members within Tampa Bay.
Voters are asked to choose up to three of six nominees for Community Grand Marshal, and one of two organizations for Organization Grand Marshal.
Ballots close on April 22. For the list of 2018’s nominees and to cast your vote, visit stpetepride.com.
