Port Hawkesbury Town Council Partners With Pride Month Organizers

PORT HAWKESBURY - May's final episode of TELILE 24/7 includes previews of Port Hawkesbury Pride Month celebrations, which received official approval from town councillors on May 26. 

At 1:52, Port Hawkesbury Pride facilitator Taylor Linloff previews the most elaborate Pride Month schedule to hit Port Hawkesbury in the three years that the town has hosted such events. These include a Pride Flag-raising ceremony taking place tomorrow (Wednesday) at 3 p.m. in front of the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre, a Pride Karaoke Night taking place at The Carriage House on June 10, and a Pride March that will begin at St. Mark's United Church and wrap up on the Port Hawkesbury waterfront on the afternoon of June 26. 

The focus shifts to agriculture at the 19:34 mark. Following a "Fast Five" segment with Nova Scotia Agriculture Minister and Guysborough-Tracadie MLA Greg Morrow, TELILE 24/7 host Adam Cooke interviews one of the new appointees to the minister's first-ever Youth Council for Agriculture, Port Hood native Courtney Schmidt, a long-time contributor to the Galloping Cows Fine Foods enterprise established by her parents Ron and Joanne Schmidt. 

Small business takes centre stage at 35:34, as we visit the Annual General Meeting and Spring Awards Dinner held by the Strait Area Chamber of Commerce at the Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre. This year's award-winners include Bill Stewart of Port Hawkesbury's B&N Distributors (AGM President's Award), Harley MacCaull of AA Munro Insurance (Jack Hartery Lifetime Achievement Award), Inverness County Centre for the Arts (Cultural Award of Merit), outgoing Mulgrave Recreation Director Heather Brennan (Kevin Beaton Heart of the Community Award), and Boyd MacIntyre (NSCC Leadership Award). 

The episode wraps up with two more "Fast Five" segments, featuring Courtney Schmidt of the Nova Scotia Youth Council for Agriculture and Port Hawkesbury Pride Month facilitator Taylor Linloff with a special Pride-themed "Fast Five."
