Its organizer, Tom House, founder of the nonprofit Hamptons Pride Inc., announced this week that he is seeking volunteers to help organize it as well as people to march in it. Those who would like to contribute their time or take part with a parade float or community group can sign up at hamptonspride.org.

A full parade route and other details will be forthcoming, but until then, more information can be had by sending an email to [email protected].
