Please join the Greenlake Grove outside at the north end of Greenlake to celebrate the rite of Alban Elfed. All those of good intention are welcome, regardless of experience or affiliation. From the Order of Bards Ovates and Druids:
“The Wheel turns and the time of balance returns. Alban Elfed marks the balance of day and night before the darkness overtakes the light. It is also the time of the second harvest, usually of the fruit which has stayed on the trees and plants that have ripened under the summer sun. It is this final harvest which can take the central theme of the Alban Elfed ceremony – thanking the Earth, in her full abundance as Mother and Giver, for the great harvest, as Autumn begins.”

LOCATION IS AT NORTH END OF GREENLAKE (between tennis courts and wading pool):
* Near Stone Avenue North & West Green Lake Drive North.
* South of the parking lot.
* East of the tennis courts (on the other side of the Greenlake Trail).
* Find the west side of the parking lot, and then walk south--and then left--up the small hill into the oak grove.
Please bring a poem, song or story for after, and food or drink to share. Looking forward to seeing you there. With the blessings of the Oak, Yew, and Silver Birch! - Ruth Oskolkoff
