Have you had a loved friend or family member pass into Summerland? We have set aside this time for such Honoring and Recognition before Bardic Circle. Please come and share your special event or your special person, and allow your phamily to join you in Recognition. Bardic Circle Our community is enormously talented. Virtually every pagan we have met has a muse on their shoulder. Bardic circle is an acknowledgment of the older times when, around the campfire or at the hearth, the community comes together to sing, dance and tell stories. Please come and share of yourself on Thursday evening in the Ritual Circle Fire Dancing & Drumming Every Night Our community is blessed with some of the best late night drumming and dancing that can be found in the community. All drummers, all dancers, all chanters are welcome. Our hearts sing together in joy and love.
