Crossing the Thresholds

Kitchen:
We have the kitchen. There might be some new rules we have to follow. Dinner on Saturday will be centered around the fire and mostly not in the kitchen. Bring: things for cooking on/near fire.

Bardic:
Bring material for the bardic: stories, poems, songs and games. Bring pieces you are willing to perform, from silly to deep, as long as you find it interesting it will be welcome. Bring printouts of random good pieces people can choose to perform if they don't have their own. Large print really helps in firelight. It is really a lot of fun to both perform and listen in these. At the moment this zoo is free for all. Anyone want to take responsibility for herding? If yes, bring large stick.

Ritual:
Can anyone do basic glass etching and/or has equipment and is willing to play with it on Thursday evening / Friday morning?

Drumming:
Will start at twilight at the Fairy Cairn on Saturday and move up the hill to the Main Fire Circle

Registration:
Is anyone coming who has not confirmed yet?

We could use:
Decent Axe, More Drums, More Shinai, Whiteboard/Markers

11 years ago, a spring event called Walking the Thresholds was born as part of Rialian's vision.
7 years ago, I attended WtT for the first time and for the first time in my life found a tribe.
4 years ago, a year between events became too long and with Rialian's help we created a second event called Crossing the Thresholds.

Crossing the Thresholds is many things. It can be...

A place to camp in the woods and feel nature around you.
A place to spend time with people who understand that the universe is not made of straight lines all the time.
A place where you can taste emotions and feel colors.
A place where conversational topics move from glitter to quantum physics at lightning speed.
A place to dance and drink around a campfire.
A place to share experiences and ideas.
A place to unfurl your wings, extend claws, and embrace a dynamic reality.
A place to talk with that which guides and inspires you.
A place where different is appreciated and respected.
A place to learn about yourself and push the edges of comfort zones to grow.
A place with magic in the wind.
A place to connect.

... and many other places.

Come play with us! See you soon!
