EarthSpirit Invites You to Celebrate the Spirit of the Season!

Beltaine Clean Up~ May 2nd, 2009
(rain date May 3rd)

Beltaine is the midpoint of Spring, when we gather together to reconnect after the Winter.

The Annal Clean Up Circle will be held at:
Greenwood Park, Middlesex Fells, Medford, Massachusetts

Details:

We are opening a new location this year with plenty of parking and across the street from the Stone Zoo.

Note: Some of us plan to go to the Zoo after the event. feel free to plan to add that to your day.

We'll meet at 11 AM for the annual "spring cleaning". By cleaning up trash and removing the leaves from the new grass, we come together to do something to help the Earth. Magically we use it as a symbol to clean away our winter debris and reconnect with the sacred ground. Children are encouraged to attend. (Extra trash bags, gloves, and tools always help in removing any winter-accumulated trash and debris!)

Again this year, during the clean up, we intend to build a symbolic Winter Spirit with some of the debris we collect. So come early to be a part of this. We also have flower wreaths to make, bubbles to blow, and always encourage drumming and connecting.

YAY! We have the permit in hand, after the clean up is complete, there will be a Maypole, followed by a potluck picnic and a Peace Cairn. Please bring your own utensils and something to share.

We'll pass a hat for small donations of $5-$10.

From Rt. 93 south take exit 35 onto Rt. 28. Bear right through the
