We are returning to Columcille Megalith Park on Sunday, June 1st for our Summer 2025 performance! 2 pm to 4 pm! This is the first of two performances at the park this year. We will be performing in the stone circle close to the park’s entrance. Bring a lawn chair, your voices to sing along and your dancing shoes for a jig!
About the park (from their website)… Columcille Megalith Park features more than 90 stone settings strategically placed throughout the more than 20 acres of the Park. Primarily placed from 1980-2005, most of the Stones were found either on site, or in local slate quarries and are approximately 3.6 billion years old. Imagine what each stone has "seen" in all of that time! Two of the large Stones in the park, the Remembrance Stone and the Goblin Stone, were set by hand one weekend in 2000, under the tutelage and supervision of Jackie and Rob Roy, using ancient techniques. The vast majority of the Stones were set using various modern tools and methods. There are also several cut granite Stones gifted to Columcille by Kristene Beck of Kinstone Park in Minnesota. Many of the largest Stones have names, sometimes more than one depending on who you ask, or what mood Bill Cohea, one of our founders, was in when he told the story of that particular Stone to fresh ears.
The Stones each have their own character, appearance, and associations. We encourage our visitors to enter with open eyes, hearts, and minds and create their own stories and experiences with the Stones of Columcille. Remember, The Way you Think it is, May Not Be the Way it is at All.
