 of the Americas.\n\nRunners arrive in Santa Cruz: Friday, August 10, 
 2012\nTime TBA (estimated at 5pm)\n\nAll are welcome to gather on the west

 they have come over the mountain pass and are about one hour away. At that 
 time, we will begin gathering on Seabright Beach. To sign up for Friday's 
 cellphone text announcements, send a text to 831-708-8199 with "PDJ" in the

 & Dignity Journeys:\nEvery four years since 1992, Peace and Dignity 
 Journeys begin their voyage across the Western Hemisphere by foot. Starting 
 from the North end of Alaska and the South end of Argentina and culminating 
 at a final gathering in Central America, runners carry prayers and messages 
 which they receive from communities along the way. Indigenous communities 
 all over the Americas witness and partake in the tradition of welcoming 
 runners with ceremonies unique to their community.\n\nThese journeys embody 
 a prophecy that all indigenous peoples in the Western Hemisphere shall be 
 reunited in a spiritual way in order to heal our nations, so we can begin 
 to work towards a better future for our children and generations to come. 
 The 2012 run is dedicated to Water, reminding all who have forgotten the 
 importance of water that this naturally occurring element is the shared 
 resource of all human beings.\n\nHow to support:\nShow up in support: Be 
 present August 10th when the runners arrive.\nDonate: food, cash, gifts for 
 runners, running shoes (new), supplies, vans, gas cards. You can donate to
