Kitsap Pride organizer Michael Goodnow said the tragedy in Orlando, and a polarized political atmosphere, added gravity to the annual, which celebrates the county's LGBTQ community and the gay rights movement. The crowd of hundreds gathered in Bremerton's Evergreen Rotary Park paused Saturday to remember victims of the June 12 mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, adding a solemn interlude to an otherwise jubilant afternoon. BREMERTON - For a few moments, Kitsap's joyous pride festival fell silent.
