SANTA CRUZ -- About 300 people gathered at the Town Clock in downtown Santa Cruz to let their candlelight shine for peace.
The vigil was part of a worldwide effort, called Global Vigil for Peace, to show the world’s disapproval of a possible war with Iraq.
At the Town Clock, participants sang hymns, including “This Little Light of Mine” and “Amazing Grace.”
The vigil was among many spread throughout Santa Cruz County. Similar events were held at the Santa Cruz Lighthouse on West Cliff Drive, the Capitola Esplanade, Mill Street and Highway 9 in Ben Lomond and on Graham Hill Road near Highway 9 in Felton.
