The city has been holding this ceremony since 2018. They consider it a symbolic show of support and inclusion, and to demonstrate the Electric City’s commitment to the LGBTQ+ community. “We’ve always had support from the city and its members and we’re happy to see that continue as well as our community members coming out every year to celebrate the first day of Pride,” ****** NEPA Fundraising and Social Media Chair Lindsy Smigel told 28/22 News. Ruth’s Place postpones Walk for Hope “I think it’s more important than ever to show solidarity and equality amongst everybody, and it’s really nice to have the city of Scranton’s support, continued support on that,” Frank Carey, performing as “Lady Lydia,” explained. The pride flag will remain displayed throughout the month at Scranton City Hall. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
