City of Cranbrook Mayor Wayne Stetski, councillors and some of the members of Cranbrook Celebration for Peace Society met to proclaim September 21 as International Day of Peace in our city.

This special United Nations Day was first celebrated on Sept. 21, 1982 and many thousands of people worldwide have honored this day ever since.

We are especially grateful that we have established a beautiful Peace Park at Idlewild for all to enjoy, and to have a serene spot to think deeply about peace, unity, and love at home and worldwide. With the unrest, senseless deaths and ongoing battles in our world, it is ever increasingly important to be working and striving for peace everyday of our lives… September 21 of each year reinforces that hope for humanity.

This September 21 everyone is invited to join us for the fifth annual Celebration for Peace at downtown Rotary Park at 1 p.m. sharp, hosted by Cranbrook Celebration for Peace Society.

We have a superb line-up of singers, dancers, musicians, groups, drummers who are delighted to entertain you royally during the afternoon.

Please put Sept. 21, 1pm, Rotary Park on your calendar as a ‘must’ celebration to attend. Bring a chair, see you there! Guaranteed your heart will be joyful!
