Program Notes: 

5:00 to 6:00 - Cocktail/Mocktail Hour featuring lots of our favorite holiday drinks! Cookie Decorating will also be happening as a fun, low-stress way to hang out and be creative. 

6:00 - 7:00 - The Winter Solstice Smorgasbord!


Welcome to our Yule page! The Winter Solstice is celebrated by many different cultures, hence much lore and many deities are associated with this time of year. 

This year we are presenting a sampling of different traditions for our celebration of Yule to broaden our understanding of this complex holiday - and have lots of fun doing it! The ritual will be held outdoors if possible, so please bring appropriate outerwear and footwear. Let’s bring in the Solstice in grand Pagan fashion!



7:00 to 8:00 - Appetizer Feast We'll have lots of food on hand but please bring a dish to share too to share the abundance. If you bring a dish please also bring an ingredient list, and if it is geared to a certain dietary restriction (i.e. gluten-free or vegan). 

8:00 - 9:00 - White Elephant Gift Exchange - This year our topic is the Runes! You will be assigned a Rune for your gift theme on RSVP with a hint for gifts that would be appropriate (view list of hints).  Please indicate how many people want to play on the RSVP form and names for each person so to receive unique assignment. Gifts should be already wrapped, valued no more than $20 and unlabeled.  After the white elephant game, we will have a second game for guessing the theme of your received gift and who brought it (which is why gifts should come unlabeled).


9:00 - 11:00 - Chillout and hangout
