As the world struggles for a global cease fire and nonviolence, let us join together as a community as we celebrate International Day of Peace. The celebration will take place on September 21, at 10:00 a.m. around the Fillmore Peace Pole in front of City Hall.

In 2008, Soroptimist International, Fillmore, held the first celebration with a wooden pole. The dream expanded, and with the support of the community of Fillmore a permanent placing of the Peace Pole took place in 2010.

Inscribed in seven languages (English, Japanese, Arabic, Italian, German, Chumash, Spanish, and Braille) is “Let There be Peace on Earth”.

Please come show your support of this important day and the need for world-wide reconciliation and peace.
