This is a great event - I have been to it for the last 5 years. Lots of workshops, rituals, music, drumming by the nightly fire til dawn, sweat lodges, cool vendors to buy stuff from and a great location in 200 aches of Maryland countryside. About 500-800 people attend. Lots of creative and spiritual people. Very welcoming to all kinds of people. Doesn't matter what your beliefs are so long as you respect other's beliefs. You can go for just a day if you want to check it out. It is about 1 1/2 hour drive north of DC or 1/2 h north of Baltimore just off I-95.

Free Spirit Gathering, we thought you'd be interested to know that registration for FSG 2007 is now open. This year's dates are June 12-17. To register, go here:

http://freespiritgathering.org/fsg/registration.html


One of the changes this year is that we've instituted a partial-pay system. You can register now with a payment of just $75 per person. Then come back later (before registration closes on May 31) and pay the balance you owe. Consider it a layaway plan for gathering.

This year's festival will include musical performances by Kiva, Kenny Klein, Telesma and a new surprise act we'll announce later. Our featured presenters will be posted soon. And don't forget our great kids' programming, rituals, meet and greet (this year with pagan karaoke!) and sweat program.

Hope to see you there!

Blessings,
