recently installed in Keizer.
The locations are in front of Los

talents with others."

munities in the immediate vicinity.
Most of the pole in Keizer will include
eight languages each.
Each pole includes English and
Spanish. The pole at Los Dos Hermanos
includes German, French, Japanese,
Hindi, Swahili and Arabic. Additional
languages on the Wallace House Park
pole include Italian, French, Japanese,
Thai, Hawaiian and Chinuk Wawa.
Chinuk Wawa is the language that
emerged when white settlers encoun-

Pacifi c Northwest.
Additional Peace Poles are planned
at McNary High School, Keizer Rapids
Park, Pfc. Ryan J. Hill Park, St. Edward
Catholic Church, Willamette Valley
Bank and Country Glen Park.
