Peace Poles

May Peace Prevail On Earth

The club's Peace Pole Project places poles carrying one message, "May Peace Prevail On Earth," in the languages of Beaumont's families, wherever people already gather. The first stands at the Albert A. Chatigny, Sr. Community Center, dedicated June 26, 2026. The second was unveiled at the Beaumont Library on September 18, 2026, opened by the Morongo Band of Mission Indians Bird Singing Group.
