December 2-9

After a fairly quiet week at camp, Leonie and I headed to Seattle for the weekend, where we had several meetings scheduled. On Sunday afternoon, we spoke at the Theosophical Society in Seattle on the role of spiritual community in people’s lives. After sharing a few introductory thoughts based on our experience of nearly 14 years at Indralaya and experience of other centers and communities around the world, a lively, wide-ranging and at times provocative discussion ensued. 

2013 Summer Programs

Last week’s post provides a glimpse of the Spring program line-up. This week continues with a summary of our 2013 summer programs. 

As has been the practice since the mid-1990’s, the summer season will begin with our two family weeks. Family Week One, with coordinators Victoria Bennett, Lars Erickson and Elliot & Ondine Toler-Scott, will run from July 1-7. Family Week Two, with coordinators Ingrid Dankmeyer, Annie McManus and Hugh O’Neill, will start on July 9 and finish on the 15th. The theme for both family weeks (as well as for several other programs being offered in 2013) will be Resilience.

Next in the summer line-up are two perennial favorites: Deep Singing and Yoga Week. First is Deep Singing, which will again be led by Helen Bee and Barbara Bellamy. This inspirational and popular program begins on Thursday, July 18 and ends the following Tuesday, July 23.   Then it’s Yoga Week with Melanie Whittaker from July 25-30. The August 1-6 program is still in the planning stages and more information will be available soon. 

Connections week is set for August 8-14. Coordinators once again are Rolf Eriksen, MariIynne Gardner and David Toren. Theosophical Society President Tim Boyd will also be attending and again leading morning discussion. The after dinner volleyball games were rugged at times this last summer and more of the same can be anticipated in 2013!

Joel and Michelle Levey will return to Indralaya for our seventh and last summer program, from August 17-22. Their theme will be “Sacred Portals: Meditation, Nature & Community”.

Check back next week for a preview of the fall line-up!
