While Cochrane's very first Pride Week kicks off tomorrow, this is the fourth year for Sink or Swim Creations 'Pride Flash Fundraiser'. The Cochrane based tattoo studio is making a donation from every hour of tattooing they finish from August 17th through to the 21st. 

Owner of Sink Or Swim Creations, Rebecca Pare says this year is very exciting because one hundred percent of the donations are going to support the LGBTQQIP2SAA community right here in Cochrane. "Now that Kindred has approached us and all that stuff it's just nice that we get to see it in the community. I feel like we make more of an impact if it's closer to home and we get to really see who we're affecting and stuff like that." 

"I'm happy to see happy people and it's just nice that it's like right here." 

Also new this year is the actual subject of the tattoos. While Pride centric artwork will be offered at a discount, $25 from every hour of tattooing, no matter the piece, will go to Kindred Cochrane Pride Society. 

While the tattoo studio plans on staying open extra late to accommodate everyone interested, appointments are quickly filling up. To lock in your spot call Sink Or Swim Creations at 403-981-6429.
