Pride Fit
There is no difference between a gay or straight fitness program except that this is our space. Cultivating environments for gay people to meet, lift each other up, and build confidence together is, and will continue to be, hugely important to offset all too prevalent non-queer-friendly places. We deserve to feel welcome in the gym just as much as anyone else.

Cape Pride Inc
As a nonprofit organization located in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, Cape PRIDE Inc. was born in the summer of 2018. The first goal was to put on an EPIC celebration for the LGBTQ+ community of Southeast Missouri in 2019 to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots & the start of the LGBTQ+ Rights Movement in the United States. That festival was a huge success and paved the way for all future goals and partnerships in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
