Peace Pole in Moore Square

At various meetings of Lutheran Peace Fellowship we have discussed the idea of "sponsoring" a Peace Pole and/or a Peace Garden in one of the public parks of Raleigh. We found out that nearly all the parks have some established plan governing whether concepts like this are allowed. We did identify one park that seemed to be available in the sense of not having a plan that would preclude this. Then I believe we decided we didn't have the resources to maintain the proposed garden.

More recently someone became aware that there is already a Peace Pole in Moore Square. We have no idea who maintains it. I made a point of finding it today while I was attending the Raleigh CROP WALK. I took photos of it for my offline collection.

Thank you! SFA is not that far from where I live, so I went to see it this afternoon. I was impressed by how nicely this peace pole is set up.

There is one at St. Francis of Assisi Church on Leesville Road as well.

I have acquired and uploaded two of Leo's photos of the 2007 Peace Booth today. They should appear on this site in a day or two.
