On Wednesday morning, August 6, at 6 a.m. the Martha’s Vineyard Peace Council invites the Island to gather at sunrise by the Gay Head Light atop the Aquinnah Cliffs.

This will be the group’s 31st consecutive remembrance of the August 6 atomic bombing in 1945. Each person will be given opportunity to offer a word, share a song, to pray and to be silent. The hope is that by recalling the horror of nuclear war, any war or violence those in attendance may become more fully committed to a peace founded on justice and sustained by good will.

All are invited to car pool at Cronig’s Tisbury parking lot at 5:15 a.m. or at Alley’s West Tisbury at 5:30 a.m. sharp with warm clothing.

For details, call 508-693-3930.
