LIGHT FAMILY UPDATE - Saturday 29 APRIL 2006 

Greetings and Happy May Day! 

Suddenly we have emerged from a late Winter into a coastal Summer here on the Redwood Coast.  The late winter weather and storm damages kept us from having picnics and potlucks so far, and even cancelled our plans for the Redwood Rainbow and Light Family Tribe Campout in Six Rivers National Forest at Spring Equinox.  So much for the calendar.  Easter/Passover or Oester was more of the real Equinox this year.  

NOW it's time to get down to planning, networking and the real action for doing workshops, ridesharing to Colorado, what we are going to do once we get there, and what all we would like to see happen.  We also need to take inventory of our resources.  Between now and then too, we are looking at putting together a Free-Form Dance FUNdRAISER at the Bayside Grange (for our local area).  

Word just  came out too that the Davis Whole Earth Festival is just around the corner on Friday 12 May thru Sunday 14 May 2006.  Some of us will be in SF around that time.  

For those who can not or do not plan to go to Colorado for Summer Solstice and the 2006 Rainbow Gathering and Global Peace Festival (synonymous to the same site) we need help in getting word out and networking for the Peace Prayer Circle to be held on Town Squares or Plazas around the Nation and Globally!   This has been a goal each year since Idaho 2001 (just as the Light Family Tribe coming together with its own kitchen or at least camp with workshop site).   Remember too, if you share this message to including the following:  
For anyone who is new to the Light Family Tribe, we
recognize ourselves, and are growing in recognition by
the Rainbow Family as "One of the Tribes of Living
Light" and you can read more on our (much needing a
face-lift) website at
www.geocities.com/lightgathering01.  

I just joined MySpace today and announced the Light Family Tribe to several groups online there.  

It would be nice to have a central place of sharing.  I know some of don't care for the word "Blogging" - but it you have Journal entries or Heartsongs you would like to share, they should be submitted so they can be placed on at least our YahooGroups website.  

I will probably have more to ADD to this write-up by the time the weekend is over, since it is now just Friday night, and Saturday is "May Day - Open House" a Homecoming at Humboldt State University Campus Center for Appropriate Technology (HSU-CCAT), beginning at Noon.   

So until later, 

Bright Blessings!  of 
Peace, Love, Light and Ecology,
