The first Little Free Peace Party at the Little Free Library was held December 23, 2013. We estimate over 60 adults and children attended. We ate cookies, sipped cider, chatted, and made doves to hang in the mesquite tree that shelters the Little Free Library. Then Dennis and Gregg got out their guitars and we sang carols. Some folks walked around the neighborhood looking at lights and singing carols accompanied by Dennis and Gregg and lead by Susan.
A note I received the day after the Peace Party says it all:
Thank you for hosting the Little Free Peace Walk Hot Cider Cookie Chompin' Jamboree! I had an exceptionally good time. As always, I thank you for cultivating the kind of neighborhood and community feeling that makes a person (e.g., me!) feel happy to be alive, even in the midst of our complicated, and sometimes cruel, world.
Wonderful evening of good times with good neighbors.
