PINWHEELS FOR KIDS

People driving by the Prescott Valley Civic Center recently may have wondered about a field of  blue and silver pinwheels.


The grassy area is occasionally used for displays of this type to commemorate something.


This field of pinwheels . . 3,000 of them . . was recently "planted" to mark Child Abuse Prevention Month.

The number represents the approximate number of children under age six who live in Prescott Valley.

  1. If they wonder about the pinwheels, maybe they'll start to think about child abuse and the pinwheels will have done their job.

  3. It's an interesting idea, provided people understand what they're about.

  4. Very nice display! The black cat in your header looks very much like a cat that I once had, and she was truly beautiful.
