The town of Dresden will soon be a little more colourful.
The Dresden Community Care Group, which consists of Dresden residents looking to better the town and promote a diverse and welcoming environment for all, proposed the installation of a rainbow crosswalk in Dresden at the intersection of Main Street and St. George Street.
North Kent Councillor Jamie McGrail introduced a motion to council on July 25, which was approved on August 8.

Funding for the rainbow crosswalk will be covered by the Dresden Community Care Group through fundraising and in collaboration with CK Pride, who has shown great support throughout the process.
Founder of the group, Myriam Armstrong, said she is eager to get started with the fundraising efforts and looks forward to crossing the road towards a more inclusive community.
