CONWAY — Monday's meeting of the Conway Public Library Trustees drew a crowd of 100 or so people, most of whom came to express support for the Drag Queen Story Hour, scheduled to take place next week as part of White Mountains Pride Week and Festival.

Drag Queen Story Hour will take place June 28 at 10 a.m. in the Ham Community Room of the library at 15 Greenwood Ave., Conway Village.  It is limited to adults accompanied by children. Tickets will be distributed on the morning of the event. Ticket holders can enter the room at 9:30 a.m.

Bravo to those who came out in support of this. Did the Eaton Posse show up? For those who showed up to protest, fine, you are allowed to do so thanks to the laws in our great country. But as i have commented before, if you don't want people in drag to read to your kids, don't go. it's really so simple. As for the Hrdlicka's, i have seen your many letters to the editors over the past couple of years, and i truly wonder if you have read the entire bible and if you stand behind EVERYTHING in it. If so, you support something much worse than a couple of guys in drag reading to kids. Please don't tell me you cherrypick what you want and ignore the rest.
