Santa Cruz Last Night DIY Parade
Hundreds of people marched down Pacific Avenue in Santa Cruz on December 31st, 2007, as part of the Last Night DIY Celebration while hundreds of spectators lined the sidewalks and cheered. The Last Night DIY Parade and Street Party is a do-it-yourself, unpermited, decentralized, grassroots and open New Year's Eve celebration with a focus on self-reliance. It is not only a celebration, but a celebration of the power we all have when we gather together to make something happen.

Imagine
John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

thank you as always Bradley for the wonderful photos and titles! - including the many of the Silent Peace Walk!
there were many new people this year who joined in the Peace Walk at the beginning of the Parade, and they commented on how profound it was to have all the people become silent all the way up the Avenue as we walked by, and to return our upraised hand signs of Peace - some even very quietly thanked us for our presence as we processed by
a VERY BIG THANKS to Wes and to all the organizers who have persevered in this wonderful community event! - Shanna McCord, Sentinel reporter, even said to me that it seemed to be becoming a "tradition in the city"!!!!!!!
May 2008 be the Year that We See an Everlasting Peace!
