Rotary Club of Fillmore and Soroptimist International of Fillmore collaborated to celebrate International Day of Peace on Friday, September 20th, 2019 at the City Park in Fillmore. A Peacemaker award was presented to a student at Fillmore High School who exemplified the spirit of peace and giving. The honoree was Hannah Fairall. She was selected by FHS principal John Wilber and staff. The award was presented to Hannah by FHS assistant principal Richelle Piechowski. The history of the peace crane was read and a meditation was led by Renee Swenson of ReGen Haus Yoga. Every attendee received an origami peace crane as a symbol of being mindful of striving for peace in the community. Katharine McDowell, Peace Chair for both Rotary Club of Fillmore and Soroptimist International of Fillmore thanked the guests for attending and invited the group to a small reception at ReGen Haus Yoga. A special thank you to Roan Mills Bakery.
