Welcome to Circles of Life!
We welcome people and families of all kinds. We welcome singles, children, teens, elders, young adults and you - however you identify and define yourself! We have something for everyone, with morning workshops and activities for adults and children, along with plenty of multigenerational activities in the afternoons and evenings. Come off the beach in the late afternoon, join friends for social hour, then dine in the DeWolfe Dining Hall or out on the Gitchell Porch. After dinner, join the friendship circle or grab an ice cream at the Ferry Beach Store. Join in the inclusive dancing each night, (including international folk dance and more) led by skilled instructors.
Mornings
Each morning begins with a short chapel for all led by our Minister of the Week, (optional, attend if you'd like).
Adult Workshops
Following chapel each morning, adults gather for the Theme Talks and various other workshop offerings.
Children/ Youth programming
During the week while their adults are in their morning workshops, children spend time with their peers. Groups are organized by age (age cutoffs shift based on enrollment.) Each is led by 2 (or more) adults attending Circles of Life, who have completed a background check. Kids will play games, create art and music, and explore local ecology.
Intergenerational Activities
Each evening and most afternoons, there are scheduled activities for all ages. Some favorites include:
-Sandcastle contest
-Singing and musical instruments
-“Pick-up” Choir
-Outdoor games
-Ice cream social
-Campfire sing & s'mores
-Sing down
-Talent / No-Talent Night
-Dancing
