What It's All About...
Queers On Parade is a monthly nature walk series created to bring LGBTQ+ community members and allies together in motion, in nature, and in connection. Each month we explore a different walking trail across Medina County—highlighting local parks, hidden gems, and peaceful outdoor spaces that invite us to slow down, breathe, and enjoy the world together.
What to expect...
- We meet at the parks pavilion
- We start walking at 9:15am
- Walks can last 1–2 hours or more
- Pace is relaxed and inclusive
Please remember....
- Bring water - we will try to bring extra, but it's not guaranteed
- Bring a grocery bag - we'll be picking up trash that we find
- We'll try to stick to paved paths BUT Medina Parks Have Hills!
- Not All Parks Have Bathrooms - Check the parks website & plan accordingly
- Please dress appropriately for the weather and trail conditions
