(Fri, 9:00 am) - Centered Open & Alive (Wake Up Wiggles for a Good Day) - by Kryss
Morning breath-based movement ritual to get your energy flowing, your body moving, your mind centered and your heart open and receptive to the information and interactions of the day. Guided morning movement sessions. We'll wiggle, wriggle, stretch, pandiculate, bounce, slosh, breathe and generally be weird together in an inclusive and adaptable experience of waking up to the sun, nature, ourselves and each other. Bring a yoga mat or something you can lay on, if you think you might want to be on the ground. Roxana is very supportive. I'll have a limited number of mats available. If being down on the ground is not available to you, that's okay. You have the option to be seated or stay standing. Part intention setting morning ritual, part guided meditation. Trigger warning: Words such as "rocking" and "shaking" may be used as cues. I'm working to find other options and expand my vocabulary. I'm not perfect. Please know that I'm trying. 20-30 minutes. Location TBD.

(Fri, 2:00 pm) - Trading Blanket - MCd by ??
On the trading blanket, a person puts down what they wish to trade. Others in the circle place what they are willing to trade for that item, which can include more than one item. The trader the has three choices: she can signal acceptance of a trade by handing her item to the person whose trade she wishes to accept and picking up the traded item; she can instead "sweeten the pot" to ask that more or different items be offered; or if she sees nothing she likes she can say "no trade" and pick up her item. Sometimes items get traded multiple times. Things that can be traded: books, jewelry, lotions, candles, clothes, oils, drinking horns, glass bottles, ritual items, Native American items. Service can also be traded - stepping on the cloth means you will give two hours work, including services such as camp clean-up, readings, massage, and help packing and loading. 2 hours.

Finally, if time allows we will close with some light discourse concerning Kundalini as it relates to the chakras. 1.5 hours.

(Sun, 3:00 pm) - Bardic Circle - by Meren
A bardic circle is a place where you can come to share your stories, songs, short skits or to be a part of the listeners and watchers as those of our community share their talents, voices and music with each other. We will gather in a circle (perhaps around a fire), and I will start by sharing a cover of a song by a favorite pagan artist, to break the ice, then each member of the circle will have an opportunity to share as we go around the circle. After we have gone around the circle once, then we will go around again if we have time, so bring songs and stories, scenes from a play or a short skit, and lets share the traditions of old with storytelling and voices raised in song. Here is a sample list of things that can be shared: playing an instrument, singing, dancing, juggling, performing Shakespeare, comedy, mime, recitation. Whatever moves you to be shared, come join us! And if you thought you were going to be able to share, and find out you just cannot, that is fine, too! No shame! We are here to have fun and enjoy each others' company and whatever it is we are moved to share. The watchers and listeners are just as important as the performers and sharers.

(Sun, 4:00 pm) - Giveaway
The Giveaway will act as our closing ceremony. Please bring something that is special to you, or has brought something good to you, that you are now ready to pass on to someone else. This gift doesn't have to be something physical; it can be an offer of help or service. Once something is given away, all strings to that gift are broken; the gift is given with no expectations. Each person will take a turn to talk about their item and its meaning, then place it on the blanket/table. Once all items are laid down, if you see something that speaks to you, and no one else wants it, you may take it.
