Unity of Citrus County is sponsoring the second annual “Pride Family Fest” this weekend.
It’s happening on Saturday from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. p.m. at 2628 Woodview Lane in Lecanto. They’re promising raffles, food, vendors, dancing, fun and activities for kids.
One of the vendors at the event will be Eric Ducharme, co-owner of Mertailor Mermaid Aquarium.
Ducharme performed as a merman at the famous mermaid shows in Weeki Wachee. Then he launched his own business, making mermaid-inspiring clothing. The aquarium now offers people an opportunity to swim with mermaids.
Ducharme is excited about this weekend’s fest.
“It’s an awesome event where people can come and have a safe space and just celebrate their lives and be part of the community,” Ducharme said.
Entry to “Pride Family Fest” costs $7.
