Mid-Missouri Peaceworks turned out approximately 120 people on a hot August night, not a bad turnout, but a little down from last year. We had three very effective speakers, and their comments were interspersed with readings from the testimony of Hibakusha. As we always do, we shared food, made lanterns and listened to music before the speakers, and floated the lanterns after, when it got dark.
We got a little coverage. (See links below to the story that ran in one of our local papers, the pic and cutline that ran in the other daily paper, and the one TV story we got.) --Mark Haim
