BLPA at Burnaby Pride 2023

The Burnaby Lake Park Association is excited to be participating in Burnaby Pride activities this year. The BLPA supports all community members, and welcomes BIPOC community members to volunteer or participate in our regularly offered free programming such as nature outings. Our Board is composed of several members of the BIPOC community and we are guided by a commitment to inclusion and equity in all that we do.

We are participating in two events on Saturday, July 22.

9:00 to 10:30 AM
First, celebrate Burnaby Pride with a guided bird outing for members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and allies at Burnaby Lake Regional Park! All skill levels welcome.  Space limited. Free but registration required. Details and registration here.

12:00 to 6:00 PM
Then we will be headed to the Burnaby Pride Festival at Burnaby Civic Square with our information booth so you can find out about our activities and how to get involved. This event is organised by Burnaby Pride.

See you there!
