    Sedona AZ (January 31, 2014) – Tapping into everyone’s wish for peace, the last workshop of Sedona World Peace Dance Celebration Week will turn to poetry for a final expression of personal involvement.

    “Poets and Peace — Readings and Workshop” will feature the talents of 15 local poets to share their own work and then assist attendees to write their own commitments to peace through poetry. Working with published poets, attendees will receive personal attention and guidance as they find their own ways of relating to peace.

Poetry has a magical way of opening an individual to deeper levels of awareness.”

    Well-known Sedona poet and workshop presenter Gary Every echoes the importance of poetry to express the deeper levels of personal commitment to peace and other qualities. “I started writing poetry hoping it would make me rich and famous,” he states. “Instead, all it did was make me a better human being!”

    Poems written during this free participation workshop will be on display at the Sedona Performing Arts Center that evening at 7PM when the first Sedona World Peace Dance and Concert will be held.

    The Poets and Peace workshop will be held Feb. 7 from 1 – 3PM at the Sedona Meditation Center, 340 Jordan Rd, Sedona. To register contact Barbara Litrell, 649-0135 or blitrell@aol.com

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
