Peace events on Monday...Arlington and Denton

Hey everyone, there are two events going on tomorrow that I thought my Arlington and Denton peeps would want to know about. Since we're without wheels I won't be able to make either of these events, fyi.

Peacemaker Picnic in Arlington

In keeping with the idea of "Creating a Culture of Peace" the theme in Arlington for Memorial Day May 28, 2007, will be "Building a Culture of Peace in Arlington - Peacemaker Potluck Picnic." The event will address the question, what would a culture of peace look like in Arlington and around the world?

To express our oneness through a diversity of food is the theme of the picnic. What better fundamental truth about survival than to recognize we all must eat; and by recognizing we all must eat, we become more aware of our oneness.

Not just food for nourishment, but food for thought, too. Bring a poem about peace, a song to sing. And speaking of song and poem, we will also have Dances of Universal Peace.

When: Monday May 28, 5pm
Where: Fielder Park. On Fielder Rd, between Abram and Park Row.

No rainout plan - just wear your mud-hoppers and bring an umbrella!!

Peace Protest in Denton

Viet Nam Veterans Against The War and North Texas Veterans For Peace invite the public to join us on Memorial Day, Monday May 28 to remember the currently 3,431 American troops KIA in Iraq, as well as the over 655,000 Iraqi civilians killed as a result of the US invasion of Iraq. We will hold a public vigil in Denton from 11am to 1pm on the North Texas Blvd overpass at IH-35E to raise public awareness of this issue. Bring your protest signs, banners, flags, and yourselves to remind the public that Memorial Day means more than picnics.
