12:00-1:00pm, we will walk a short loop around downtown Presque Isle to call attention to the existing issue of abuse and violence and send the message that our community will not tolerate it. Participants are encouraged to create signs to carry on the walk, (i.e. “Honk to end domestic violence”). When we return to the library, lunch will be provided.
