Moms for peace
The third annual Mother’s Day Gathering for Peace is 10 a.m. to noon Saturday at Ferguson Park, 1330 Ferguson Park St., in Snohomish.
It is sponsored by the Snohomish County RESULTS group, which educates people on reducing global poverty and hunger.
There will be speeches, entertainment and a children’s peace project. Wear colorful clothing and bring a homemade peace sign for a parade.
And bring nonperishable items for the Snohomish Food Bank.

Food drive this week: The Sno-Isle community libraries are collecting items for food banks through Thursday.

Applicants must be graduating seniors in an Edmonds School District high school or students at Lake Washington Technical College and plan to enroll in a horticulture-related program in any college or school for fall 2009.
