HELP US to PLAN, VISION and CREATE more
MONTHLY PICNICS, COUNCILS, CAMPOUTS, DRUM and FULL
MOON CIRCLES, and "FUNdRAISERS (e.g. FREE FORM DANCES, GOURMET
PANCAKE BREAKFAST)
"REGULAR" ONGOING POTLUCK-PICNIC-COUNCILS prove to work BEST on a
Monthly Basis; DRUM CIRCLES seem to be enjoyed WEEKLY; while OTHER
EVENTS require CALENDAR PLANNING so.......
Please Email Us (below) to suggest WHAT, WHEN, and HOW you might
help.
Remember too - Campouts were requested (after National) ... but it all depends on input and co-creating this vision
REMEMBER for any GATHERING or POTLUCK-PICNIC to
BRING: All things good; including food or non-alcoholic beverage to
share (we especially enjoy Vegan, Vegetarian, and
Kosher/Organic/etc. - made with Love), your own Bowl-Cup-Spoon

blankets, photos, music, acoustic instruments, drums, water buckets,
sunscreen, aloe vera, bug repellant, announcements, token gifts and
trinkets for new friends, donations to the Magic Hat, and your love -
not necessarily in that order (% - extra serving-eating items are
always welcomed too).

space.
