[Rick Kisséll]

 

Veterans For Peace chapter 175, Janesville, Wisconsin will present a Veterans Day Program in the Lower Courthouse Park in Janesville on November 11.  Beginning at 10 AM and throughout the day, there will be a display of memorial signs with the names of soldiers from Wisconsin killed in Iraq and Afghanistan.  A formal program at 4 PM will feature Stanley Campbell as a speaker, followed by the reading of the names and concluding with the playing of taps at 4:35 PM which is sunset that day.

 

Stanley Campbell, is the director of Rockford Urban Ministries, an outreach of 25 congregations (mainly United Methodist). Stanley is a Vietnam Veteran who found healing by helping others after he returned to Rockford, Illinois from the war.  For more information concerning this event call 608 879-2841.

 

The attached document gives more information concerning this event and the speaker.

 

This information has been distributed to newspapers in Janesville, Beloit, Milton, Brodhead and Rockford.  It has been shared with VFP chapters 25 (Madison) and Chapter 102 (Milwaukee); peace groups, the Rock Valley Fellowship of Reconciliation, the Unitarian Congregation of Rock County and the Rock County Diversity Action Team.  However, turnout for an outdoor program in November is iffy at best.  Please help with publicity.  The best publicity is your personal contact with people you know may be interested in this program.

 

Peace,

 

Norm
