  Join us for our Annual Virtual Imbolc Celebration
  

  Imbolc occurs at a time when we have been holed up against the winter chill for months- resting, preparing, and staying warm. Imbolc allows us to honor and embrace the quiet of the season; to mend items we will use in warmer weather, brighten and clean our homes, and begin to welcome back the light and fire of spring. 

  Come join us for a weekend of connection focusing on the ways that we honor winter as a time of rest, renewal, and focus. We will share the skills and crafts that bring us through the winter, reflect upon our space and ourselves, lay plans for the coming thaw, and enjoy Imbolc-themed crafts and activities. Also sing songs, drink tea, and hang out- like we always love to do!

  
  

  Event Details

  The event will run virtually from Friday January 30 at 7pm to Sunday February 1 at 3pm. All times are EST.

  • TBD

  • Sunday: Breakfast, TBD 3, hangouts, hugs & goodbyes

  
  

  FAQ:
  

  What's a work weekend?

  Any weekend-long event where folks come together to accomplish a venue-related goal, typically involving some manual labor. Work weekends are much more relaxed and informal than most SCC events, and typical attendance runs from 5-15 people.
  

  Past activities have included:

  • stone work, like checking on a risen Stone after the concrete's done curing
    
  • land stewardship, like chopping deadfall for firewood, or removing multiflora rose
  • improving site access by tending to paths and stairways
  • and of course, the occasional swimming and s'mores break
    

  
  

  How much does it cost to attend?

  Tickets are free! These weekends aren't as much of a "production" as typical SCC events, and we are not going to make you pay to volunteer for us. That said, sometimes there is a suggested donation to whoever is cooking to cover the cost of ingredients. If you want an accommodation other than what SCC has booked, you will need to pay for that individually. If there is a financial barrier that is keeping you from coming, email admin@stonecirclecouncil.org and we'll work something out.

  
  

  Where will I sleep?
  

  SCC has booked a group campsite for us. Bring your usual camping gear, and we will set up a little village together.

  
  

  How will I eat? 

  Typically one (or a few!) members of the group will cook for the rest, and/or we will have a potluck-style meal plan. If you have food allergies, make sure to note them on your registration, so the cook(s) know how to keep you safe.

  Join us for our Annual Lughnasad Celebration 
  

  In Celtic mythology the god Lugh established the festival as a feast, with games commemorating his foster-mother Tailtiu. We will be celebrating in much the same fashion as a tribute to Lugh and a celebration of the harvest.

  Wait, Games? 

  This year we are hosting an all-virtual, totally free Lugh that lets us take advantage of all the games that an online platform has to offer! Party games, Jackbox games, Zoom charades, Gartic phone, pictionary, quiz games, and more!

  We'll also have a variety of our favorite online activities, include crafting together, socializing time, bardic, and other good opportunities to connect with each other.

  
  

  Event Details

  The event will run virtually from Friday July 31 at 7pm to Sunday August 2 at 3pm. All times are EST.

  Registration for the event is free, though we are accepting donations to the Sunshine Fund for other events and general donations!
