“May peace prevail on Earth.” T hat’s the simple message that has been shared all over the world on what are called “Peace Poles,” which have become the most recognized international peace symbol and monument the world over. As a result of a project that began in 1986, more than 200,000 Peace Poles are now standing in almost every country throughout the world.
BriarPatch Co-op will join in spreading this hopeful message by installing a Peace Pole near the gazebo by the parking lot on Monday, September 21, the International Day of Peace. In partnership with the Peace and Justice Center of Nevada County, the Co-op will hold a dedication ceremony at 9:00 a.m. that morning. Everyone is invited to attend. Peace Chorus will sing songs of peace. Free bumper stickers.
