President of the organization, Linda Bensey, said the group has been occupying that corner in downtown Estes Park every Wednesday from noon to 12:30. The dedication of the group members is strong and community members will see at least Patriot each and every week, no matter the weather.
They have not missed a Wednesday since the group was founded in 2003.
The Patriots for Peace describe themselves as a transpartisan, inclusive organization whose mission includes promoting a culture of peace at all levels of society. They meet once a month and encourage the community to stop by.
