Peace Dove seeks Homer parade walkers

Since it’s first Homer Davenport Community Festival Parade, Silverton People For Peace (SPFP) has worked to make its entry inclusive to all sharing a message of peace. For almost 20 years, military veterans for peace, a national reconciliation chapter, belly dancers, drummers and children tossing out candy have been among those walking behind SPFP’s banner or under the wings of the giant “Dove.”

SPFP encourages anyone who shares the goal of peace and social justice on all levels of society to walk with them.

Colorful banners and signs will be provided to accompany the Dove.

The group assembles at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 6, at the Old Silverton High School south parking lot, Brown and Schlador Streets. The Parade starts at 10 a.m. For more information contact Robert Sisk, 503-873-5307 or at [email protected].
