Welcome!

Secular Outreach Summit: Panel on Community Building

Come share in our first annual Midsummer Festival on our newly-reopened pavilion! A few grill-able main dish options will be provided, but please feel free to bring a side and your favorite non-alcholoic drink. We’ll have some outdoors-friendly games and activities, but please also feel free to bring your favorite. Families welcome!

Our monthly discussion will be held directly after in the Hall, a roundtable on the topic of Community Building.

Come hang out and play some boards games with us! This is a kid friendly event so bring the family. The Hall has quite a few games on hand, and there’s generally a pretty good selection of our favorites to choose from.

Bring any snacks you would like to nibble on.

Bring your favorite craft to hang out and work on it in good company! Any skill level and any medium welcome!

Help available for patching clothes, simple adjustments, and making simple patterns.
