You’re invited to a very special ceremony of music, poetry and reflections. This year our featured speaker is a remarkable 9 year-old girl from McKinley School in Santa Barbara. The winner of a local peace award for a presentation on Cesar Chavez, third-grader Abigail Pacheco will speak about Sadako and leadership. She believes that Sadako’s lesson is that we are all leaders, and by sharing our voice we can make a difference.
