A joyous celebration of Yule, the a return of the Sun's light, at Bradley Mountain Farm. Solstice Ritual, Bardic Circle, Drumming at the Fire, and Potluck Feast. Families are welcome. Meet and feed the goats at the farm! Krampus will be joining us.
Please let us know ahead what you will be bringing for the potluck when you RSVP here on FB. Plan a tray of something to feed 20 people and something to drink (non-alcoholic). Kitchen is not being rented - bring a warmer if necessary.
12 pm come for set up of food, socialize, feed the goats, take a walk and explore the beauty outdoors by Crescent Lake. Meet Krampus! He will be available for photos, asking him what you want for Yule, and has a very special dark story to share.
Parking: All areas are level, and easily accessed. If you are handicapped please let us know IN ADVANCE so we can make it easier for you with parking. The goat farm handles parking.
1:15 pm-ish Solstice Ceremony honoring the rebirth of the Sun is indoors in the Tavern Room (with fireplace). Odyssean Wicca ritual format including some liturgy is standard for us (no, it's not Greek).
2 pm-ish Eat, drink, and be merry :) Bardic Circle, please bring a song or music, a poem, or a story to share.
3 pm-ish Drumming outdoors by the fire if weather permits.
4 pm close. Another group will be using it after us.
$20 monetary donations accepted to cover rental, kids free, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Kindly, be generous if you can.
Please also bring a non-perishable item for Spooner House, which is both a shelter and a food bank. Any left overs will be brought there following the event.
