Index A Letter from the Executive Director to the Community It is with great excitement that I write to you about a subject that is very dear to me, Stonewall Columbus Pride. I began volunteering for Stonewall Columbus when I moved to Columbus in 1994. In 1998 my life partner, Linda Schuler, and I were asked to join the Pride Committee as the Chairs of the Parade. That year, the March and Festival combined had approximately 15,000 people in attendance. It is hard to believe that it was fifteen years ago that we began working on the team that produces Pride. Now in 2013, Stonewall will probably host 300,000 people and touch the lives of countless others who believe in and hope for fairness and equality for all.

Linda and I always worked together as a family and volunteering for this event was always part of our yearly plans. We also invited many of our friends and family members to help us share in the fun and excitement of the day. It is a wonderful feeling to know that you work very hard for a cause which gives so many people happiness and hope. I can’t think of a better way to spend the weekend with my family and, in turn, with all of you who will be joining us June 21-23.

• Grand Marshals

Our Pride committee, board and staff consists of thirty-three of the most highly professional and skilled individuals that I have ever met. Each of them brings a unique skill set to their area of responsibility and they work hundreds of hours to produce Pride 2013. They make this event a success and do so with a mix of grace, precision and humor.

Pages 30-31 • Community Stage

I want to encourage all of you to come out, bring your families, volunteer, have fun and raise money for a good cause. Stonewall Columbus serves the Central Ohio LGBT community by providing a community center and offering programming and services that enhance the well-being and visibility of our diverse community through discovery, affirmation and celebration. Happy Pride, Columbus!

Since January, the staff of Stonewall Columbus, along with a multitude of community volunteers, have spent countless hours preparing for the Midwest’s biggest and best Pride celebration. Their hard work will come to fruition on June 21-23 when nearly 250,000 people will gather to celebrate the strength, vibrancy and richness of Central Ohio’s LGBT Community. Thanks to each of you for all of your hard work! This year marks the 31st Anniversary of Pride. Throughout these 31 years, lives have been changed as a result of the hundreds of thousands of individuals who attended Pride and marched in solidarity to improve funding for AIDS research, to end discriminatory practices like “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell,” to fight for Marriage Equality, and to raise awareness regarding countless other equity and social justice issues. More importantly, lives have been changed because these same individuals made the conscious decision to live openly and authentically and chose to create a community celebration where all are supported and nurtured, regardless of where they are in life’s journey. With this in mind, we chose this year’s Pride theme to be “Pride Changes Lives.” Please keep this theme in mind as you reflect on the holiday and celebrate with your friends and family. While Columbus Pride is Stonewall’s largest community outreach program, each of the Center’s initiatives works to change lives. When our community became painfully aware of the impact bullying has on students, Stonewall responded and developed the Central Ohio LGBT Anti-Bullying Summit where nearly 100 educators were trained how to create Safe Spaces for LGBT youth. When Stonewall recognized that older LGBT adults were being underserved within the community, it responded and created Trailblazers, a program providing support and social programming for Columbus’ LGBT senior population. These two programs are just examples of the many ways in which Stonewall Columbus works to ensure that Central Ohio’s LGBT Community is DISCOVERED, SUPPORTED and CELEBRATED. On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for celebrating Pride with Stonewall Columbus. I would also like to take this opportunity to invite you to become more deeply involved with the organization. Become a Volunteer, a Member of the Center on High, or a Sustaining Donor to the organization. When you do, our success is ensured and you become an integral part of the change that is Stonewall Columbus! Please visit www.stonewallcolumbus.org where you can learn how to become a part of this amazing organization. Wishing you a Pride Holiday filled with much joy and happiness!

CHANGES LIVES Sile “Pride saved my life! If I had not come across Pride, I believe that someone else would be telling the story of my death.”

Malaina Hicks “Pride has changed my life through showing me that everyone should be proud of who they are, no matter their race, sexual orientation, weight, or age.”

Josh Spencer “When marching, I felt such love from the people. It meant so much to me to be surrounded by people who loved and supported me that I came out to everyone a few months later and I moved to Columbus.”


Stand With Us! TyMarie Cunningham Maury Portillo

Stefan Luebekmann

“I love this celebration because it is beautiful how all of my gay brothers and sisters are so happy and… I am so proud of who they are.”

“The celebration of our parade, the festival and the way our community comes together are some of my favorite things.”

“I am bisexual, but my boyfriend is VERY straight, so it meant all the more to me that he marched in the gay pride parade in support of me.”

J. Lee Cooper-Giles

“Pride has strengthened the bond of friendship that I have with my best friend of 25 years, Rob Berger, and has gotten me more involved in the LGBT community.”

Judy Callendar Rupert Twink Starr

Jack Wheeler

“What a wonderful thing to see so many people…young and old. I am so happy that Stonewall has made this possible.”

“I remember stepping in the middle of High Street and seeing an ocean of people…LGBT and allies. At that moment, the #1 emotion I felt was one of belonging to something bigger.”

“My husband Bill and I have been attending the Pride Celebration for Life for many years…we are allies. Being embraced by the LGBT community has enriched our lives, blessing us with friendships and relationships with people we love and who love us unconditionally.”

Douglas Whaley “In 1976, I came to Columbus as a Visiting Professor at the Ohio State University Law School… I also moved to the city to explore the gay world for the first time in my life. In 1981, I joined a fledgling gay activist movement in Columbus at its very start. It was then called “Stonewall Union,” and now, almost thirty years later is still the largest gay rights group in mid-Ohio… Stonewall Columbus.”

Stonewall honors this recently married couple for their activism and commitment to marriage equality. Stephen is the army officer who submitted a question about Don’t Ask Don’t Tell (DADT) to the Republican debate on September 22, 2011 and was booed as a result. This was an overwhelming experience for the couple and inspired them to fight even harder for full equality. The couple are also involved in a lawsuit with other service members to gain equal treatment in the military which the so called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) currently prohibits. Both have been active as public speakers and community organizers and have dedicated their lives to fighting for our civil rights. Just recently, Stephen and Joshua created an event called the CBUS of Love; they will escort twenty-five couples to Washington DC on Friday, June 21 to be married on the US Supreme Court Building steps. The brides and grooms will then be transported to Columbus, Ohio for a honeymoon weekend at the Pride Festival in Columbus, Ohio. They will march or ride on a float and accompany our grand marshals during the parade, share a bite of wedding cake and dance their first dance as married couples near the pride stage. Columbus Ohio becomes the CBUS of Love wedding destination! “The theme for this year’s pride is ‘Pride Changes Lives’ and so it seems fitting that two gentlemen who have changed the lives of so many in our community are leading our parade,” said Karla Rothan, Executive Director of Stonewall Columbus.

Stop by before you hit the bars Friday and Saturday... and take a look at some of the details that make these DJs worth a listen!

DJ Tony C started spinning when he was 14 years old, and he found his calling in house music playing Rainbow Mountain Resort in the Poconos and Stonewall in Allentown. He even dipped into track dates with recording artists Jomanda, Sabrina Johnston and Adeva. In 2000, Tony brought his talent to Columbus, and has been DJing Pride events since 2008. He programmed this year’s DJ line-up and will be performing all weekend! We are thrilled to have him as part of Pride 2013: Pride Changes Lives! The Village Druids will put you under a spell with their chants, incantations, and audio-wizardry! Village Druids is an American electronic concept-band formed in 2011 inspired by the underground dance music spawned during the last three decades. Originating from the heartlands of Ohio, the Village Druids are Chuck Blackwell (chants, spells, & keyboards) and Jamos (tech wizardry, keyboards, & guitar). Get entranced by the Village Druids on Friday night! DJ Chris X performs throughout the Midwest, and is the former resident DJ at the Vault in Memphis, Tennessee. A former DJ for Express and Exile, DJ Chris has over 14 years on the scene. His blend of house, trance, breaks, and dubstep will make you bounce and will have you wanting more. Check out DJ Chris X both days on the Pride Patio! DJ Moxy is an emerging electronic music producer, remixer, and spin artist. Moxie is Moxy’s life agenda. DJ Moxy’s goal is to build upon the positive energy “soul” of the sounds she’s producing, and to reflect it back to herself and her audience. DJ Moxy specifically intends to spin a perfect set of uniquely mixed dance music that sonically connects herself and her audience to the positive energy flow of the universe itself. Check out DJ Moxy Saturday afternoon on the Pride Patio.

5:30 Spiritual but not religious was OK with Jesus

Religious traditions are meant to help people find, develop, maintain and find fulfillment in spiritual connections to the Divine, other people and even the natural world. Many of Jesus’ greatest arguments were with religious leaders about how their rules, rituals and regulations prevented true spiritual connection and growth. This presentation will explore this idea and look at Jesus’ spiritual practices as a guide for our own spiritual relationships. Hosted by New Creation MCC.

We use problem solving, networking, and relationship-building techniques to grow small businesses through a unique combination of matchmaking and concierge services. The SBB makes this easier with The SBB card, which provides discounts at independent retailers, restaurants and bars in neighborhoods throughout central Ohio. We will give out SBB community cards and other local goodies while discussing the benefits of a community shopping local.

Imagine Productions presents 9 to 5, the Musical. Celebrate the music of Dolly Parton and the story of the 1980 movie by the same title with highlights from this award winning show! Cast will perform several top song and dance numbers from the production which runs August 7-18 at Wall Street Nightclub.

A general overview of Netcare’s services with a focus on suicide prevention in the GLBTQ community. Individuals who identify as LGBTQ are at greater risk, not necessarily due to sexual orientation itself but because of family members’ attitudes and lack of a positive support system. Research also indicates that individuals who feel their sexual identity conflicts with religious beliefs or values are at greater risk of suicide. I would like to highlight that it is important for individuals to seek support and help and equally important for family and friends of an individual who is LGBTQ to know how to recognize warning signs and help someone in need of help.

Testimonials and discussions about the Open and Affirming congregations of the Central and Southeast Ohio United Church of Christ.

C-Bus of Love On June 21, 2013, 25 couples will be making history by participating in the C-Bus of Love sponsored by MarriageEvolved. These LGBT couples come from Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, and West Virginia and they will get married at the Supreme Court in Washington D.C. The C-Bus of Love will be leaving from Columbus, OH and traveling to our Nation’s capital, where true marriage equality exists today. These amazing couples will be making a lifelong commitment in front of the building where DOMA’s, the so called Defense of Marriage Act, fate will be decided. Once the couples have made history in Washington D.C., they will travel back to Columbus, OH and celebrate pride weekend (Pride Changes Lives) as newlyweds! The C-Bus of Love is being led by LGBT activist couple, Joshua & Steve Snyder-Hill. Joshua and Steve are currently fighting DOMA on the national level to establish equality for LGBT military spouses. MarriageEvolved is committed to promoting marriage equality for ALL couples. Couples should be permitted to marry when they feel the time is right, not when outside parties feel they should get married. The couples participating in C-Bus of Love have decided that they will not wait for their state to tell them they are allowed to get married. Showing their support and commitment to marriage equality, businesses from Columbus to Washington, D.C. have donated their goods and services to help make this an amazing and memorable journey for our couples. Help us prepare and celebrate this amazing event. You can sign up for updates, donate to help this initiative going forward, spread the stories of our amazing couples or join us in 2014 C-Bus of Love. 34 | 2013 Pride Guide

Get to Know the Facts:

The test of time: Our couples are in a combined 189 years of committed relationships. That’s an average of 7.5 years together without being married. Our longest relationship spans 31 years! The ages range from the age of 18 to 61 years old.

Home sweet home:

Our couples are not only from Ohio, we have couples from Illinois, Michigan, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia. The distance: Round trip our couples will have traveled a combined 28,248 miles!!! That’s enough to circle the earth once PLUS another 600 miles!!! On average these couples will have traveled over 1,100 miles just to marry the person they love.

Financial Impact:

Based on average spending, the states these couples come from are losing a combined potential revenue of over $500,000.00 dollars! $351,340 from Ohio $21,786 from West Virginia $90,350 from Michigan $45,495 from Tennessee $22,748 from South Carolina $25,118 from Pennsylvania $23,068 from Illinois

The C-Bus of Love Couples will be sharing their first dance at the Columbus Pride Festival on Saturday at 2pm at the Shelterhouse Stage. After that, they will share a beautiful rainbow cake with festival-goers during a meet and greet. Cake Provided by

Be Safe, Be Neighborly As we celebrate over 30 years of community pride, please remember to stay safe this weekend! Read the safety tips below: Listen to Pride Security, an incredible group of volunteers who are there to keep you safe. Unfortunately, every Pride festival in the world has to deal with protesters. Do not engage with these individuals, as it will only please them more. Ignore the protesters and keep on marching! Don’t give ‘em the satisfaction. Please stay aware of your surroundings and make sure you pace yourself and stay hydrated, so that you can enjoy what the festival has to offer all weekend! Remember to stay with a friend and do not leave your drink unattended. Keep in mind that our furry friends (dog & cats) can’t stand the heat of Pride weekend. We recommend you leave your pets at home so they can enjoy your air conditioning while you’re out getting a suntan in the park. Just a reminder, our allies and friends include the neighborhood of Goodale Park! Please keep the neighborhood clean and respect those who own houses around the park. We will have recycling and trash receptacles throughout the park. Please take advantage of them and Go Green with us! Make sure you park legally and safely, and stay aware of your surroundings when walking around town.

$5 for Pride Every year, you count on Stonewall Columbus to bring you one of the biggest, best Prides of the nation with events, entertainers, an incredible parade, and more! And your community contributions help support the incredible Stonewall staff to ensure that your weekend is just plain awesome. Our 5 for Pride Team will be marching in the parade as well as stationed at festival entrances, available to collect your donations to keep Pride fabulous, safe, and spectacular. Pride wristbands and dog tags can be yours for a donation of $10. Please donate whatever you can to continue to make Columbus Pride the best in the Midwest!

Volunteer Spotlight

Linda Blount-Jacobs

Hope Hindrichs

First year as a Volunteer: Pride 2008

First year as a Volunteer: In Columbus 2008, but I have been volunteering for Pride festivals for over 30 years.

Current Pride Job: I help with set up and sign placement. How has Pride changed your life? It has taught me to appreciate how much hard work goes into organizing a festival. Why do you volunteer? As an ally to the LGBT community, I want to be supportive. I enjoy seeing people celebrate and take pride in who they are. I like being a part of the many months of planning and organizing, and then seeing it all come to fruition. And finally, I volunteer in honor of my mother who taught me the many rewards to embracing diversity.

40 | 2013 Pride Guide

Current Pride Job: Communications/ Dispatcher How has Pride changed your life? Pride has allowed me to accept me as me and to be proud of the path my life has taken. Why do you volunteer? Through the years, the LGBT community has opened many doors, but there are a great many more doors to be opened. I believe I can help to open those doors by sharing what I have learned about activism with those who will carry the torch in the future. I have learned one of best ways to reach out to those who carry “our” banner was through Pride.

Nicole “UNECC” Williams

Barry Bassetti and Ken Perdue

First Year as a Volunteer: Pride 2007

First year as a Volunteer: 2001

Current Pride Job: I run an event on the Gazebo Stage

Current Pride Job: Entertainment Assistants

How has Pride changed your life? Pride showed me that there are many people out here just like me. I was never afraid to stand up and be who I am, but it’s very refreshing to look back and see many people standing with you. It’s a great way to show the youth that you can be yourself, and I’m happy to bring my camp along (HIT M ENT) to share these wonderful experiences with me.

How has Pride changed you life? It has given us a foundation and a family of support to live our lives without fear. It gives us a reason to be proud of who we are.

Why do you volunteer? I love standing up for my community! I love Stonewall- they have given me so much... it’s only right I give back to them as much as I possibly can.

Why do you volunteer? We volunteer to give back to the supportive community.
