In 2026 we are returning to StoneSong Center in Flintstone Maryland to celebrate spring with our first Trilithon and the Fairy Cairn.  We'll gather Friday evening May 1st through Sunday afternoon May 3rd.

About the Venue: 

StoneSong - Awareness & Nature Center is a welcoming space nestled in the Allegany Mountains of Western Maryland. It includes a beautiful farmhouse overlooking 23 acres of luscious land, a renovated barn that serves as a retreat center including an indoor meeting space, kitchen and bunk beds.  The land includes a small pond, and creek, a fire circle, nature trails, an apiary and an organic vegetable garden and orchard. 

Most of our attendees will camp and that cost will be included in the cost of registration.  Non-campers can upgrade to bunkhouse accommodations.  Stone Song Center does not allow personal campfires. So be mindful of that when planning meals.  We will also offer a limited number of meal-plans for those attendees who prefer not to cook for themselves.  Pricing and details are still in the works but stay tuned. 

Stone Song Center does not have trash-service so please plan to pack-out anything you pack-in. 

*Stone Song Center requires all persons on-site over the age of 5 years to be fully vaccinated as per the CDC definition. The CDC states that "a person is fully vaccinated two weeks after receiving all recommended doses in the primary series of their COVID-19 vaccination."


COVID-19 and our Community Health Policy:

We require all attendees to adhere to SCC's health policy, which is outlined here
