Naomi (left) and Olya got their message through loud and clear with this sign. The two were just a few of 50 or so members of the public that came to celebrate the International Day of Peace in the Grand Marais Harbor Park. A march was held and speeches made. A smiling John Morrin, pictured behind Olya, was one of the featured speakers at the event that was held Saturday, Sept. 22. The International Day of Peace was created by a resolution from the United Nations in 2001. Citizens around the world are called to gather to promote the ideal of peace in their communities, countries and the world on this day. Staff photo/Brian Larsen
