Make music and support local counter-recruitment work!
Every year, the Peace on Earth Carolers perform traditional holiday carols between Thanksgiving and Christmas and donate the money they raise ($2000-$3000!) to the Project on Youth & Non-Military Opportunities (YANO). This money helps us educate youths on alternatives to enlistment and supports student peace activism.
Volunteers who participate dress in Dickensian costumes and sing for set fees at various locations, which have included shopping malls, street fairs, Quail Gardens in Encinitas, the San Diego Symphony, private parties and other seasonal events.
Rehearsals will begin in October. Singers are needed, as well as instrumentalists who can provide accompaniment on guitar, Autoharp or other acoustic instruments.
If you would like to participate, or if you'd like to hire the carolers for an event, call Project YANO at 760-634-3604, or email projyano@aol.com.
