Spring Equinox
Sunday March 22 at 2pm (sharp!)
Coyote Run at Camp Gaea There is a fire ban in effect currently, which may or may not be lifted depending on how much rain occurs between Wednesday and Sunday. For this reason candles, torches etc. may or may not be permitted at the ritual.
Water at the site will not be turned on until April 1st, so please bring your own drinking water. Other good supplies to have on hand will be bug spray and sunblock. A high of 60 degrees F is forecast for the day, so dress accordingly. Greek pantheon will be honored at this event. This will be a collaboration with Web of OZ and Ar Ndraiocht Fein so it might be slightly different from a purely druid event. Friendship and understanding across different traditions! |

- Quick Bios of our presenters, the rather wonderful Jon Drum and Michael J. Dangler.
Rev. Jean (drum) Pagano has been an ADF member for 28 years. He is currently an ADF Consecrated Priest; the Vice Arch Druid; a student, reviewer, and advocate for the ADF Study Programs; and an ADF Journeyman Bard (soon to be Master Bard). Drum has written a number of articles for Oak Leaves, has written a book of poetry entitled “Arise from Vapours”; and has studied and worked with the ogham for 23 years. While I am currently a member of Cedarsong Grove, I consider myself a Traveling Priest. I also am the ADF ListMaster and Manager of the ADF Store
Rev. Michael J Dangler has been an ADF member for 11 years. He is currently an ADF Senior Priest; Preceptor of the ADF Clergy Council; a Past Senior Druid and Grove Priest of Three Cranes Grove, ADF, in Columbus, OH; and some of his work appears in Our Own Druidry, the handbook for the ADF Dedicant Path. He has studied runes for a few years, learning Old Norse in order to begin translation on the Rune Poems himself. If you see him before or after the workshop, go talk to him: we bet he thinks you're pretty cool and definitely interesting.
Come join us as we celebrate the Equinox in ADF Druid style. As always, feel free to bring what ever sacrifices you wish to give to the Kindreds. Also feel free to click the picture and register your coming attendance on our Facebook page.
