as we plant our Pinwheel Garden at Morgan Square.
This is a great event for kids and families.
And a great way to start some dialogue in your home or community about child abuse.
One pinwheel will be planted for each case of substantiated abuse and neglect in Spartanburg County last year. Do you know what that number is?
Chamlee Loscuito will speak briefly and the Honorable Junie White, Mayor of the City of Spartanburg, will have a special proclamation, followed by a Spoken Word performance.
The event will last around 30-45 minutes.
