The first ever Peace Ring to twin with Flanders Peace Field was celebrated at the unveiling event held Sept 21 on the United Nations International Day of Peace. The children were presented with the history of their club which now facilitates over 100 participants. An exhibition of the history of boxing was displayed in the gym along with a projection of pictures illustrating how important the boxing club is in their community when it comes to bringing people together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
