PRIDE IN THE HOUSE!

Our 2025 Pride Kickoff Party with Chicago House Athletic Club on Sunday, June 8 was, despite the rain, a fabulous day. Thank you to all who shared the day with us, and thank you to Mayor Scott Levin for delivering the 2025 Pride Proclamation during halftime of Game 1.

And a special thank you to Chicago House Athletic Club for partnering with the EPC all season long. Thank you for sharing our commitment to social justice and all your efforts in providing a safe and inclusive space to enjoy soccer in Elmhurst!

PAINT THE TOWN IN PRIDE_

Each year, talented local artists and inclusive businesses join forces to showcase Pride-themed window displays and banners, and every year we're blown away by the amazing work they do.
