Warren County Pride Fundraiser - Out Like A...

On Saturday, March 29, 2025, Warren County Pride's fifth annual Spring fundraiser took on new form in 2025. Playing on the later-than-usual date, "Out Like a..." invited participants to show their wild sides. The newly warm weather gave a playful feeling to the evening. Lions, lambs, and other animal prints were popular themes in both decor and attire. Welcomed by local favorite Jessica Rabbit, performers Willa DeWhisp and Kristy Kreme traveled from Buffalo and Pittsburgh, respectively, to share their sass and skills.

The event had previously been hosted at Warren's historic Crary Art Gallery. This year, "Out Like A..." took the stage at Sally's Encore, an upscale bar adjacent to and operated by the historic Struthers Library Theater. Featuring a ten-foot bar dating back to the 1880s, this new site allowed for a record number of attendees who showed record generosity in support of Warren County's Pride Festival.

Silent auction items, donated by business and individual Friends of Pride, ranged from hand crafted items to merch and gift certificates. Food by Corry's Your Daily Serving and Betsy Grinder kept people coming back for more, and a successful bake sale provided a sweet treat for attendees. Warren County Pride Festival will take place at Betts Park on Saturday, June 14, 2025. All are welcome to attend this free family-friendly event. Donations are graciously accepted on a year-round basis via warrencountypride.org Your continued support helps us keep our June celebration free to all.
