Kids:
All PeaceBikers are now back home. They are sharing the
PeaceBike journey with kids and adults in programs and on the website. They are
still connecting penpals and email pals around the world. The work and fun of
making peace happen needs to keep on.
The PeaceBike journey through 24 countries around the world was celebrated December 1, 2001. It was a cold, rainy day, but everyone was happy as Tad rode his bike back into Champoeg State Park, Oregon, where the journey started over two years earlier.
We're working on getting their journals posted for you. We may hop around a little, so check back for what's new! (By the way, are any of you keeping journals that include stories of how you or others are helping peace happen? Let PeaceBike know!)
