EVENT MOVED INDOORS DUE TO WEATHER
Let's welcome the season of darkness and make light together around a beach bonfire (or online). Well celebrate the Winter Solstice with community and connection to nature. Well watch the sun set on the longest night of the year and reflect on the earths position and the cycles of our natural world. Well be led in simple solstice songs (singing or listening are equal choices) and share reflection and gentle contemplative practice. One version of this program will take place at the beach, and another version will take place online at the same time.
This event is suitable for all ages and would be most engaging for ages 12 and up.
If you are attending in person, bring weather-appropriate wear and (if desired) your favorite hot beverage. If it is raining, the beach gathering will be relocated to a Shoreline home. Please RSVP to receive any location updates.
If you are attending online, please log on with 1-3 candles and matches. The Zoom link will be sent when you RSVP.
Please contribute as-you-can when you register to meet our costs. Everyone is welcome to attend, regardless of ability to pay.
Location:
We are meeting at the fire pit, near the playground. Once you enter the park, continue to the parking nearest to the beach and the playfield. (https://www.google.com/maps/place/4742'47.6"N+12222'42.0"W/)
It is a 1.5 mile, up/downhill walk to the nearest bus stops (5, 40). Contact GatherinGround.Seattle@gmail.com if you would like to find a carpool, or if you would like a pick up from or drop off to a nearby bus stop.
Accessibility:
At the park:
Our meeting spot (the fire pit) is 50 ft from the parking lot. There is a paved path to the fire pit. There are cement benches around the pit and picnic tables nearby.
There is a public restroom 100ft from our meeting place that is typically open in winter.
