Boat Cruise for Hudson Pride - Friday, June 17th

Boat Cruise tickets on-sale here

I remember when I first starting looking for a house in Hudson.

I was happy when the Amtrak train was late.

It meant I got to spend a couple of more hours in Hudson, and I sat by the waterfront and waited for the next train.

I still walk by the waterfront in the mornings, and usually, it's just me, my dog, and a few people in their cars.

When I tell people that I moved to Hudson, or that I live here, their reaction is usually, 'Why Hudson?'

Why would anyone want to live in this old little city?

I know I've said this so many times, but Hudson Pride is not just gay/lesbian/whatever pride.

It's about Hudson.

It's about having pride in this little city....the people and the place itself.

That's why we do a boat cruise, and why we have our rally in Promenade Hill park.

When you bring your friends down by the water (a waterfront that is so accessible) on the boat cruise or to the rally, they get it.

They understand the answer to 'Why Hudson?' and why we all choose to live here.

Happy Hudson Pride!
