You are looking at the Prairie Peace Park website, revised during April, 2008 by Michael Fairfchild.  The website carries forth the messages of the Prairie Peace Park which was open for 12 years (closed during 2005).  The Park and this website present a powerful vision for the earth which will let us not only survive, but will move us to greatness as humans that we have never seen before. 

To grasp the strong vision and Spirit of The Prairie Peace Park, by look intently at the first of 34 cartoons.  Can you see the double message? One message is taunting, challenging StratCom (Strategic Air Command) with the highest and best within us -- THE DANGEROUS STRATCOM DILEMNA.  The other message is a metaphor depicting the epic struggle now happening in America between FEAR and HOPE: “A PARABLE THAT OFFERS A VISION OF AN ALTERNTIVE WORLD” -- spelled out in the 34 “cartoon” pages.

By April 15, 2008, we plan to have all 34 “cartoons” on this web site which you can pull up free and use them as you wish.  A free discussion guide will also be available to further flush out this unique, workable vision for the planet’s development.  After you have viewed the “cartoon,” there are some others items for you to see:

Here are two pictures of two major exhibits that are still at The Prairie Peace Park site.  You can see them from I-80 just west of Lincoln:

1) The 80 foot ceramic World Peace Mural created by over 40 world artists from the “clay stomp” in Arizona.  Artists sculpted their ideas for the world’s wonderful development.

2)  The 12 foot globe that turns titled “The Dance of the Children.”  The children were sculpted locally of stainless steel.

There is a revealing and uplifting poem about visions in each of these two exhibits in the book on this web site titled “The Future of Peace -- There is Still Hope -- Visions of What We Can Become” that we developed for the Omaha Peace and Justice Expo.  You can pull it up.  These two dramatic poems along with visions are in this book.

There were 74 exhibits at the Peace Park when we closed it.  The large children’s maze is challenging children at the Presbyterian campground, Calvin Crest, near Fremont.  The 10,000 square feet exhibit of 30,000 U.S. nuclear weapons is located at the Peace Farm near Panhandle, Texas.  The fourteen large permanent signs of The Path of Hope have been installed at the UCC and Christian Church Camp (Kalaeo) near Burwell, Nebraska.

We also helped to develop a comic book this year about StratCom which you can pull up, view it, run it off by

The seven member Prairie Peace Park board meets three times a year.  We are active each week in the Nebraska Coalition for Peace which conducts demonstrations and other protests again the war and various injustices.
