Hundreds came to participate in or watch the Columbia Gorge Pride Parade that started at 10 a.m. this morning, June 26, in The Dalles. Participants were joyful about the event but some were also warry as the Roe V. Wade Supreme Court Decision on Friday hinted at the erosion of federally protected same-sex marriage rights.

The first annual Turkey Trot event in The Dalles will be held on Thanksgiving, Nov. 25th. There are two different runs at the event. The first is a 5k run/walk or there’s a family fun 1-mile run. The event begins at 8 AM at Lewis and Clark and the 5k walk/run will be along the Riverfront Trail.
