Candlelight vigil tonight at Heavenly Village Lake Tahoe
Submitted by Editor on Sat, 12/15/2012 - 1:23pm
Dear Tahoe community, we are all mourning the horrible, heart-breaking massacre of young children and educators in Connecticut yesterday. These were the children, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews of people who loved those precious little ones as much as we do our own. This is the second mass shooting just this week and gun safety experts report that there have been 31 school shootings in the US since Columbine in 1999.
Please join us this evening at 5 p.m. for a candlelight vigil at Heavenly Village (near the base of the Gondola) to mourn for the lives stolen, and to stand for a peaceful world free of violence for all children on Earth.
The event is being hosted by Small World as part of our mission is to help create a peaceful, livable, just planet for all children.
Peace and goodwill to all,
John
