We, the people of Cottonwood, Az, have learned of an event promoted as "The Arizona Pride Tour 2023," scheduled for April 8th on the City of Cottonwood public property. The event is welcome to all ages with parental supervision, serving alcohol, and providing free AIDS testing.

In order to ensure domestic stability, promote the general welfare of its citizens and protect its children, we humbly ask that you deny this application. We also ask that The City Council review crime statistics in other areas where deviant sexual activity is promoted and endorsed. As the concerned citizens of Cottonwood, we do not want outsiders coming into our great city, performing a show, and then leaving a blight on the community where we must deal with the consequences of their actions.

We ask that you please protect us by denying the application.
