Ken Ditlevson, director of ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ State's LGBTQ+ Center, was one of the volunteers adding rainbows to both sides of the Main Street Bridge in downtown ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ.
Volunteers decorated ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ's Main Street Bridge on Monday in preparation for ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ's Rainbow Weekend on Oct. 13-14. The rainbows downtown also celebrate National Coming Out Day on Oct. 11.
One of the highlights of the Rainbow Weekend's is the eighth annual Rainbow Run presented by ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ's LGBTQ+ Center. This 5K helps raise money to replenish ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ State's LGBTQ+ Emergency Fund, which supports ÃÛÌÒÊÓƵ State LGBTQ+ students in crisis.
