DESCRIPTION:Saturday, October 29, 2011\n18TH ANNUAL PEACE & UNITY MARCH IN 
 WATSONVILLE!\n\nResidents Say Remaining Proactive Against Violence Has Made 
 Big Difference!\nEvent will honor local residents who lost their lives to 
 domestic and street violence.\n\nOn Saturday, October 29, 2011, hundreds of 
 local residents will be joining the 18TH ANNUAL WATSONVILLE PEACE & UNITY 
 MARCH which will take place at noon on the Watsonville Plaza. The Peace 
 ceremony begins at NOON.  We march at 1PM SHARP.   Several community 
 leaders, family members of victims of violence and youth will be addressing 
 the effects of violence on our communities.  \n\n“This march is an 
 ongoing effort to stop the destruction of our youth and community by 
 violence,” said Sandino Gomez, an organizer of the Watsonville Peace and 
 Unity Coalition.   “It creates a community consciousness about becoming 
 actively involved in reducing violence and improving our neighborhoods for 
 our future generations.” \n\n“Remaining proactive against violence has 
 made a tremendous difference,” said Yovanna Bravo, an event organizer.  
 “After this march first began seventeen years ago, we have seen other 
 efforts emerge throughout our city to bring peace and unity to all our 
 homes, schools, and neighborhoods, and to keep awareness and action focused 
 on building positive community here in Watsonville.” \n\nALL FAMILIES WHO 
 HAVE LOST LOVED ONES TO VIOLENCE ARE INVITED TO SET UP AN ALTAR BEFORE THE 
 PEACE CEREMONY BEGINS AT NOON. This yearly event continues to be organized 
 by a coalition of concerned students, parents, community-based 
 organizations, churches and families who have lost their loved ones to 
 community violence.  We will never forget the names of our loved ones 
 lost.\n\nWe will also be presenting the “Barrio Warrior” award to one 
 of our local educators, artists and community advocates, Jovita Molina!!!  
 It is an honor to give Jovita this award for her tireless organizing, 
 cultural work and participation in improving our community.\n \n\nThis will 
 also be a Day of the Dead celebration.  Community is invited to set up Dia 
 de Los Muertos altars.\n\nWe hope you can cover our 18-year anniversary of 
 this very important event that is primarily organized by Watsonville 
 residents and youth! \n\nWHAT:    The 18th Annual Watsonville Peace & Unity
