The community is still healing from the shooting at the gay nightclub in November left five dead and 17 wounded.
Colorado Springs, Colorado, is gearing up for its annual Pride celebrations, but this weekend will be different from the rest.
Survivors of the Club Q shooting have been invited to serve as grand marshals in the parade this year, according to Rex Fuller, the CEO of The Center on Colfax, an LGBTQ+ community center. The center hosts the parade each year and selects the grand marshals at the front of the parade. The shooting unfolded quickly, with the suspect opening fire upon entering the nightclub. The gunfire was so aggressive, investigators believed rounds may have struck the exterior of a 7-Eleven store a full block away.
