“World Harmony Run” to Stop at Children’s Museum of La Crosse

Friday, July 20th
10:30am
Children’s Museum

On July 20, participants in the World Harmony Run will be stopping at the Children’s Museum as they pass through La Crosse as part of a 10,000 mile relay through the states.

Their basic message is that harmony begins with the individual and then spreads to our families, friends, communities, and to the world at large.  The participants run carrying an Olympic-style torch and cover thousands of miles across the globe in over 100 countries connecting people of all walks of life.  Everybody can hold or run with the torch and put in their goodwill for a harmonious world.

At 10:30 am on July 20 at the Children’s Museum, the team will introduce themselves and their mission, sing the World Harmony Run theme song, and invite Museum visitors to join them in a wish for world harmony.  Involvement in the World Harmony Run presentation is included with Museum admission.
