Public statement Nov 5 2016

The Pagan Pride Project is an inclusive organization.  However, in light of recent events, we feel compelled to address the arrest of Scott Holbrook.  Although the case is in its initial stage and Mr. Holbrook has not been convicted, our events are family events and safety is our primary concern.  Scott Holbrook has been removed as a local coordinator for Piedmont Pagan Pride Day in light of his arrest earlier this week.  We do not presume or mean to imply that we believe Mr. Holbrook is guilty, but we are taking this step merely as a precaution.  Along with the rest of the community, we will watch the progress of the case against Mr. Holbrook.
