Immokalee Children’s Fair & Peace March

The Shelter for Abused Women & Children will recognize National Domestic Violence Awareness Month with its Annual Children’s Fair and Peace March on Monday, Oct. 27, 2014 at the Collier County Immokalee Sports Complex, 505 Escambia St. in Immokalee.

“The Peace March is an annual highlight for our Immokalee outreach program,” said Shelter Executive Director Linda Oberhaus, “In addition to bringing the community together for some family-friendly fun, this march embodies our mission to prevent, protect and prevail over domestic violence through advocacy, empowerment and social change.”

The Children’s Fair will run from 3-6 p.m., followed by the police-escorted Peace March at 6 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Activities include children’s games, entertainment, food, and prizes. There will also be a talent show and information booths hosted by partner agencies.
