Over 80 folks ranging in age from 6 months to sixty something attended the “Lanterns for Peace” event in Dodgeville, Wisconsin. As part of the program there was an update about President Bush’s proposed $150 billion increase in nuclear weapons, and petitions to signs for our Senators and Representative. There was a message from an Japanese-American woman whose great grandparents came from Hiroshima. A story-teller told the story of “Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes” to the children. There were songs for children and adults. “Lantern for Peace” were made by everyone and floated on Twin Valley Lake in Governor Dodge Park at dusk. -- Mike Wolkomir
