Guest Speakers Charlene Iboshi & Tim Hansen February 3, 2021
Wednesday’s Guest Speakers were Charlene Iboshi and Tim Hansen, East Hawaii Rotary Clubs’ Peace Committee. Peace is multi leveled; not just world peace but within our individual community and ourselves. They are building the peace initiative on the Big Island by incorporating Rotary’s Seven Focus Areas. The annual Kakou “Around Here” “Let’s Work It Out” workshops are scheduled for October 22, 2021. The workshops will help you add more to your “toolkit” to build and retain peace. There are many ways to promote peace. Among them you can be a practitioner, an educator, a mediator, or an advocate. Rotarians are often some of the first to respond to disasters and crisis. Charlene and Tim also discussed the Peace Pole Project. Rotarians have mapped 18 poles and are installing 2 more. Each pole will be designated on a map to encourage people to go on a peace pole pilgrimage. They encouraged everyone to take the peace pledge. Copies of the pledge will be emailed out. The call to action is a discussion about what you and your club can do to change the world, the community and yourself.
