City Council has announced that the week of May 23-28 will be Pride Week for the LGBTQ community in Estevan. 

Mayor Roy Ludwig made the announcement at the last City Council meeting.

"It's a request that we had, we've been doing it now for a number of years so it came to council and council agreed to make that announcement."

He adds that it is a good opportunity for people to learn more about what it all entails.

"Pride Week is basically about awareness with the various communities."

"They'll have a small ceremony in front of City Hall at the flag pole on Wednesday at noon."
