Earthdance Community Meeting Weekend

May 9 (Friday morning) - May 11 (Sunday afternoon)
Community Meeting – Saturday Afternoon
Free of charge for all who attend. Bring a Friend
Please let us know if you are planning to attend


Our theme this year is "Building Bridges."  In addition to the actual bridge maintenance work project we will focus on deepening the bridging connections between Earthdance and its local community, Earthdance and its supporters, and between Earthdancers across the generations of its history.  

This is a time when we gather at Earthdance in order to:

  • Work on the land, clean up the grounds, work in the garden, continue renovations , and prepare for Summer
  • Talk about Earthdance, plan for the organization's future, discuss who we are and where we are going.
  • Dance, of course, and play music, and improvise.
  • Tell stories, share amongst the generations that have cherished this special place.
  • Celebrate the amazing journey of this organization and community!! Come have fun with our community

The Schedule: Generally Friday, Saturday morning, and Sunday will be times for work projects such as gardening, outdoor cleanup, spring cleaning, some building maintenance, and hopefully the repair/rebuilding of the wooden bridge across the stream. Saturday afternoon we will hold our Annual Meeting to report upon the state of the organization and the work we have been doing on our strategic plan. Later in the afternoon will offer a time for a more free form discussion of ideas and actions.
