World Harmony Run
Earth Day, Environment and Year of Forests celebrated in Dag Hammarskjold Plaza across from UN (2011 April 20)

We shared the message of the Run and sang the World Harmony Run song.

Many young friends from the local Vanderbilt Y and everyone else came up for a chance to hold the torch and make a wish for world peace.

These were some of the performers who kept us all smiling

and gave more meaning and voice to the fact that this year (through August 2011) is also the International Year of Youth, also displayed on the banner.
