Chapel Speakers and performances tentative schedule proposal for Father Blizzard
9/21 Peace Day: Wednesday: UD Chapel Orchestra
9/20 Disarmament Day: Tuesday: UD Chapel Choir
9/19 Freedom Day: Monday: Judy and Josh
Speakers being explored for other chapels 9/12 -9/16
National Memorial and Museum speakers: The Education Coordinator, Mrs. Lynn Porter was contacted on 5/29/2016. She has been able to provide incredible chapel speakers in the past. Mrs. Porter will be re-contacted in July for speakers for all chapels. She felt that she could provide age appropriate speakers.
Another source is the Respect Diversity Foundation Bureau of Speakers http://therespectdiversityfoundation.org/
Mrs. Clay also sent an e-mail to Sam Presti's press agent on May 25/2016. Sam Presti was a 9/11/2015 speaker and we will love to have him back. Mr. Presti is the manager of the Oklahoma City Thunder and main promoter of the Oklahoma City Standard, One act of Kindness, Honor, and Service sponsored by the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum. Update: We need to be flexible with Mr. Presti schedule and re contact his agent in August.
Another possible speaker is Thunder player Serge Ibaka born in Congo, Africa and a Spanish citizen. See what PEACE ONE DAY is trying to accomplish in Africa in the area of Peace with the sponsorship of Warren Buffett. Update: Mr. Ibaka was transferred to another team in June.
Brief Introduction of Peace One Day- Worked to institutionalized IPD@ UN
Peace One Day Great Lakes Campaign in collaboration with Warren Buffett
9/24 OKC UN Celebration of International Day of Peace Connections to YAC and YLOKC. A small group of volunteers is working on connecting the Turkish Festival (4,000 people attended last year) to a UN/OKC raising awareness, advocacy and celebration of the International Day of Peace 9/21 on 9/24. The Peace/ Friendship Walk/Parade will be at the Myriad Gardens. Time: TBD yet.
The Casady YAC Peace Team connection MAY BE with walkers with signs and pinwheels raising awareness of UN Peace Day-Peace One Day, and the 11 Days of Global Unity. The YAC theme and the evolving YAC Peace Week WHY? Unifying different backgrounds into one peaceful community ( Environment-Unity in Diversity-Participating in the community to improve lives-Going Beyond Co-Existence) align very well with the UN IDP OKC Walk.

The Casady Peace Team may also want to consider bringing a t-shirt design to the attention of UN IDP OKC planning team at the next meeting. Coca Cola is one of the sponsoring businesses of Peace ONE Day -organization that institutionalized the IDP at the UN. Jeremy Gilley, its founder has been our inspiration for many years. Other possible sponsors could be the businesses from the Asian District, the organizing entities of the walk, and multicultural and civic OKC clubs promoting peace, like the Respect Diversity Foundation, the Oklahoma Conference of Churches, the Rotary Club, the Lions Club,the Asia Society of Oklahoma, the Latino Community Development Agency, The goal will be to give away or at minimal cost environmentally friendly inspirational t-shirts at the walk and the entire Casady community participating in the 11 Days of Global Unity Activities from 9/11-9/21, our PEACE WEEK.
The Casady music and art departments will be contacted to see if they could help with inspirational posters and banners for the walk as well as musicians cheering the walkers and performances of peace/multicultural pieces at the end of the walk.
