On June 14, 2008, the Oakland Parks & Recreation Department will be unveiling its citywide “Quilt for Peace” project.

Panels will be assembled to create a quilt honoring Peace throughout the community. Stonemountain & Daughter is proud to support Oakland Parks & Recreation by offering participants in this event 20% off of regular price materials to be used in this project.
