John Chowning comments on what happens to pinwheels 'The pinwheel is an object that illustrates the goal that children should experience happiness and joy rather than the darkness of abuse and neglect.' - JOHN CHOWNING Comments re article 66597 Letter What Happens to Pinwheels By John Chowning The pinwheels are the national symbol used by Prevent Child Abuse America and Prevent Child Abuse Kentucky to raise awareness of the widespread problem of child abuse and neglect. During the month of April, local and regional groups across Kentucky and the United States use the pinwheels as a means of raising awareness and to facilitate conversation on the issues and to enhance efforts to prevent child abuse and neglect - as well as to educate the public on how prevalent these situations are. The pinwheel is an object that illustrates the goal that children should experience happiness and joy rather than the darkness of abuse and neglect. The Lake Cumberland regional children's advocacy group is commended for their efforts to bring this very serious issue to the attention of our communities. Here in Campbellsville, the Lake Cumberland organization, Greater Campbellsville United, our Mayor and County Judge Executive, and others have placed a similar display of pinwheels on the lawn of the Taylor County Courthouse. We thank them for their efforts. --John Chowning This story was posted on 2014-04-11 18:18:03
