**THIS IS A BIPOC CENTRED EVENT.

!!! zero tolerance for transphobia, racism, misogyny, body shaming, and violence of any kind. if you can't act right, we'll ask you to leave.

THE BUDDY SYSTEM:

The Buddy System is a grassroots effort to combat rape culture and enhance the safety of our queer events. CONSENT IS SEXY -- AND MANDATORY! Oppressive attitudes and behaviour -- including but not limited to misogyny, transphobia, racism, fatphobia, and ableism -- are not welcome here. The Buddy System will be in effect at Level Up Pride. Buddies will be wearing **NEON T-SHIRTS**. Our Buddies are NARCAN trained, and are carrying sealed water bottles, condoms, lube, granola bars, tampons, and more. They will run interference if someone is receiving unwanted attention, can help folks in need find a way home, and generally serve as go-to support people should any problems arise.

Entrance ramp is located on the right (north) side of the warehouse parking lot, and is 38in wide with a handrail to the left 41in high. Accessible door has a clearance of 45in. Inside entrance is 81in wide. There is not yet an accessible toilet installed, so for the event we will have an accessible portable onsite. Washrooms are all genders.
