Program Notes:

3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. - Ostara Walking Ritual
HVGW will be celebrating the arrival of spring with a meditation walk to find our magic in nature as the Earth comes out of her winter rest. We'll prepare to bring our practice outside once again as the weather begins to warm and the first signs of growth appear in the rich humus formed by fall leaves. Please bring appropriate footwear, outerwear and any aids to hiking and being exposed to rain that you like. Humans of all ages are welcome. We plan to be outside for only a short portion now due to expected rain.
4:30 - After-ritual Pagan Night Out at a restaurant TBD!
Rides can be arranged. Please indicate on the RSVP if you are looking for a ride and where you want to be picked up.
If you have mobility issues please let us know on the RSVP and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.
If weather proves too inclement we will take our celebration indoors. Please stay tuned to our website for changes in programming as we will announce a rain location there.
