Waffle King’s Heart Balloon: The Waffle King will play a central role in our Pride decorations. They will have a giant heart-shaped balloon adorned with shimmering little rainbow hearts and colorful ribbons. This eye-catching display will add a touch of joy and festivity to the lobby.
LGBTQIA Prominence Table: On one side of the lobby, we will set up a table featuring pictures of some of the most prominent LGBTQIA individuals throughout history. These individuals have made significant contributions to the community and deserve recognition. To enhance the experience, we will also include a small poster with a QR code. When scanned, the QR code will direct visitors to our pride section on the website, where they can access more information about the people featured in the photos.
