Preliminary Notice
A pre-announcement so that all those that might like to attend can plan far enough in advance. Members of the AODA are hosting a Druid Gathering over the weekend of the Fall Equinox at White Tank Mountain Regional Park in Phoenix Arizona (please see link to location in the sidebar). We have the Group Campground reserved, which has Ramadas, showers, barbecues, and fire pits (although there may be fire restrictions due to the time of year).
Gordon Cooper, of the AODA Grand Grove, will be in attendance and giving a day long workshop on Victorian Era Spirituality and other subjects. Dr. Kenneth Proefrock, AODA Druid and professional Herbalist, will also be speaking on Native Plantlife and it's healing properties . There is the possibility that British musician and OBOD member Paul Mitchell will be in attandance.
As I said, this is a bit of an early announcement, as we do not have the schedule of events finalized yet other than Kenneth and Gordon's talks and an Alban Elved Ritual. A hike along the Petroglyph Trail has been discussed and will probably be included in the itinerary. This is open to all Druids, Pagans, and spiritually minded people, not just members of the AODA, so if anyone wishes to attend they are certainly welcome. For those in the Metro Phoenix area, you may just come for the day or camping space will be available.
As the schedule of events is ironed out, I will post more.
We will have an RSVP phone number available to confirm that you are coming, either for the day or camping. For any questions, please e-mail me at myrddynemrys@gmail.com for now.
