Where We Live
building better communities
December 2007 THIRD THURSDAY:
Winter Solstice Drum Circle
On Thursday, December 20, 2007, we took some time out from the
hustle and bustle of holiday preparations to de-stress and reconnect
with friends and neighbors at a drum circle led by local artist and
percussionist Katrina Fairbank.  Katrina effortlessly got us to cast
aside any self-consciousness or doubts of rhythmic ability by starting
off with a call-and-response game, until gradually the rhythm took
on a life of its own.  The kids made pine cone bird feeders and
played spirited games while we all enjoyed an evening of
community.

If you missed this event, never fear.....this is one we will
DEFINITELY repeat!

Thanks to Katrina and everyone who participated!  Check out the
