P.E.A.C.E SCOOTER
A Patriot’s Exhibition Advancing Community
and Environmentalism, on a Scooter
.

Many roads lead to common ground. It’s about a 20,000 mile Peace sign. Community. And You.

In the same year that the Peace sign turns 50 years old, I will trace the first ever HUGE Peace sign onto our U.S. map. What will you be doing? Oh, did you say supporting P.E.A.C.E Scooter? I hope so!!!

Can you imagine riding 20,000 miles on 10-inch wheels, four-inches above the road, to promote Peace, Environmentalism, and Community?

How else can you get so close-to the public, to the scenery? I’m interviewing people and shooting video of the American perspective. All the bizarre, beautiful, enlightening moments, will be shown here, starting May 2. There are 9,000 miles left to complete the Peace sign.

All I’m asking you to do is keep an open mind and contribute your beliefs.

I started this ride in 2007 because I want to help do my part in making the world a better place to live. PhotobucketI was scared that Peace is either seen as such a loaded topic, or just a commercial concept. I want to show that Peace is really every step, every mile. It’s how you treat yourself, others, and the environment. Knowing it was a controversial topic didn’t stop me, nor did being called a hippy. (I’m not)

Along the way, I will fundraise at least $12,000 for donation to organizations who work hard to improve America; focusing on domestic/international conflict, the Environment and Communities. My goal is simple, $1 per 1 mile driven. Of course a mission like this will have expenses, but less than half goes for gas, food, lodging. We get to discover things that help create Peace, like helping others in need, sustainable choices, being kind, and having fun. Please help by donating today.

I will talk to total strangers all over the country to find out what Peace really means to people. This is not to be mistaken as an anti-war demonstration. This is simply an extension of my lifestyle and my will to help make the world a better, kinder place.

P.E.A.C.E Happens 2008
America Needs Work. Yardwork.

That’s right, I want to mow at least one yard in each state into a Peace sign! It’s a powerful, pretty little symbol that represents social change globally. This is simply a free way to use your space to voice your beliefs. Please contact me if you want to see that Peace sign on your yard-or if you know someone who does!

The journey continues May 2, 2008. We’ve got a lot of miles ahead.
Run fast to tell your friends and family. Join me if you can-or host me in your town. But at least stick with the adventures!

While I’m out here cruising around our vast, beautiful country, think about Peace with me. Tell me what you come up with. And don’t point one finger, POINT TWO.

Each segment on the map above is available for sponsorship and represents approximately 200 miles. My goal is to raise $1 per mile. A segment can be sponsored by more than one individual. In fact I HOPE that this map is filled by small donations from many people, as an illustration of how community is built by individuals coming together in small ways.
