Yesterday, we walked the some trails at Millport Conservancy. What a beautiful space. Violets, geese, other wild flowers and mating ducks. Peaceful and contemplative. It will be interesting to see how camp ebbs and flows this year in a new place.

Sense of Wonder Camp 2014
We are excited about this year's camp. We actually have homework or moon-work for the girls before camp begins. We have asked that they follow the moon or keep a moon journal now until camp begins on Monday, June 23rd. We will talk about the moon cycles and patterns that they observed. The National Wildlife Foundation will be our guide for this activity. http://www.nwf.org/kids/family-fun/outdoor-activities/moon-journal.aspx

Sense of Wonder Camp - June 23 to 27, 2014
We
have the brochures for Sense of Wonder camp & can send them by
email. Let us know if you would like to receive one! Please email fullcirclesusq@yahoo.com
Camp will be held June 23-27 this year, a week later than we usually hold it because of the snow days this winter - several local school districts are extending their last day of school. We also have a new home for camp - the beautiful Millport Conservancy! We are very excited!

It IS Sense Of WONDER Camp!
On the Eve of Summer Solstice, we rise for our fourth day; representing the element EARTH and the direction NORTH.
From Starhawk's Spiral Dance, "The North is considered the most powerful direction. Because the sun never reaches the norther hemisphere, it is the direction of Mystery, of the unseen. The North Star is the center, around which the skies revolve. Altars face North in the Craft. North corresponds to Earth, to the body, to midnight, winter, brown, black, and the green of vegetation. From the North comes the power to keep silent, to listen as well as speak, to keep secrets, to know what not to say."

Here are some of the gifts from Mother Nature and the creations the girls made from Air/East (dream catchers) and Fire/South (Shakers) as well as some visitors that called us to listen with our deer ears, see with our owl eyes, touch with our racoon hands and smell with our dog noses.

Second Annual Yard Sale - Saturday, April 27, 2013
Full Circle Susquehanna is having a yard sale/fundraiser on
Saturday, April 27.
Some items for the sale are kitchen items, a water fountain and potted, native plants (Native columbine, ferns, jack in the pulpits, and perhaps some trillium and queen of the night tulips) and who knows what else. If you need to do some spring cleaning and would like to donate your gently used items, please email fullcirclesusq@yahoo.com and note "yard sale" in subject line. Yes, we will take clothing, hesitantly, as I only have one clothing rack to display the items. If you can price your items, too, that would greatly assist us with set up as we already have many people donating their stuff.
Please spread the word to help us re-purpose these items to a good home and for a great cause. Mark your calendar so you don't miss the yard sale @ 843 Janet Avenue, Lancaster, PA.
