This page, created January 1, 2009, pending resolution of technical
difficulties at UFPPC's main website, www.ufppc.org, was revived on Feb. 23, 2009, after the UFPPC site had been down for more than 48 hours.
It is the fourth web page maintained by United for Peace of Pierce County; the first,
which existed from November 2002 to February 2003, is still
on line, as is the third as well.
