Easter '04
Continuing their mission to promulgate Universal Joy, the San Francisco Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, Inc. are proud to announce “Indulgence in the Park,” an Easter picnic and celebration. This very San Francisco event brings together children, families, friends, artists, and community activists all on one lawn to celebrate the Sisters’ 26th Anniversary and enjoy a day in Dolores Park. The event is free to the public.

“Indulgence in the Park” promises to be lively and vivacious incorporating stage performances, children’s activities, and two cash-prize contests. On this year’s performer line-up, Sister Selma Soul adds, “This year's Easter stage will feature the venereal... I mean venerable... talents, of Kitten on the Keys and Trauma Flintstone, as well as those rising stars of the silver screen The Ethel Mermen Experience, taking time out from their Craig's List: The Movie promotional tour. Hoping to get a rise out of the crowd, we will be joined by one of our favorite local bands Polkacide, celebrating their 20th anniversary.”

At 1:00pm, participants will line up to parade across the stage in their Easter finest for our Bonnet Contest. Later at 3:15pm, this year’s “Hunky Jesus” will be chosen. Both winners will receive $100 cash prize.

In addition to providing an afternoon of merriment for the community, the Sisters also hope to raise money for a whole year of grants awards. “Our cherished San Franciscans have always been very generous, and over the past 26 years have donated half a million dollars to Sisters’ Grants recipients, often one dollar at a time. The Sisters just love to give as much as we get, and we dig it when you dig deeply. Contributing to our Grants fund makes your gift last all year long,” adds Sister Roxanne Roles.
