The Zonta Club of Prowers County, USA, completes 16 daily activities supporting the Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women and the 16 Days of Activism campaigns. In addition to attending the proclamation signing at the Prowers County Commissioners’ Meeting, members performed daily activities from 25 November through 10 December, such as:

• Hanging a banner at the train depot.
• Decorating a storefront window.
• Setting orange pinwheels at the County Courthouse and County Annex.
• Placing silhouettes at entrances to the library, community building and courthouse.
• Installing orange ribbons around downtown light posts.
• Participating in the Red Sand Project to spread the message across town locations, including Lamar Community College.

Several events were open to the public, including the In Her Shoes Event and Discussion and a showing of Knots: A Forced Marriage Story at the Cultural Events Center. Additionally, the club donated funds and gifts to the Domestic Safety Resource Center at a potluck instead of a dinner out.

The final weekend concluded with a “Take Back the Night” walk downtown and a photo op at the train depot, signaling the last day. A request was made for the club to present its award-winning advocacy program at the District 12 Area 4 meeting in Cañon City in April 2024.
