OKC Pride Board Committees

Events
The Events Committee organizes, promotes and facilitates OKC Pride events throughout the year. Events can range from fundraisers to charities, from block parties to awareness activities, and everything in between. The Events committee works closely with Fundraising and Education & Outreach Committees (among others) to coordinate functions needed by those groups. Whether helping with a specific event or being involved year-round, volunteering with the Events committee is a great way to get, and stay, connected with the LGBT community in OKC!
