The Rotary Club of Shoreline, in partnership with The Peace Pole Project, will dedicate a Peace Pole this Saturday, October 20, at 10am, at Rotary Park in Shoreline (located at NE 185th Street and 10 Avenue NE).  Community members are encouraged to attend.

A Peace Pole is a hand-crafted monument that displays the message and prayer May Peace Prevail on Earth on each of its sides in different languages. There are tens of thousands of Peace Poles in 180 countries all over the world dedicated as monuments to peace.

They serve as constant reminders for us to visualize and pray for world peace. When you plant a Peace Pole in your community, you are linking with people all over the world who have planted Peace Poles in the same spirit of peace.
