are just generally pretty good people wherever
you go. We’ve been made to feel extremely wel
come and we definitely
plan to be back next
year.”
News media
throughout the state
picked up on the suc
cessful event and some
stations even began
using Hayes’ soundbite
“feel-good event of the
year” as a tagline when
describing the fest.
Although a minor
contingent of protes
tors from Concord’s
Operation Save
America (OSA) showed
up to protest, they were
quickly removed
from the college
campus and had
their loud speaker
cut off when
police determined
that they did not
have a permit.
At one point
just prior to the
parade, a group of
young LGBT
activists formed a
wall in front of the
protestors, block
ing from view
placards covered with anti-gay slogans.
Shortly after the parade, OSA, apparently
discouraged by the response, left the
festival.
“I think the impact they had was
minimal,” says Hayes. “They’re not
reflective of this city. Durham has
always been very supportive. So have
the University, the police and the
business owners. They’re so support
ive they put gay stickers in windows
and advertise in the Pride Guide.”
According to Hayes plans for next
year are already in the works.
“We’re already talking about it,” he
says enthusiastically. “We’ll have our
first meeting in March and the real
work begins around May. This is
always very rewarding.” I
