Kindness Gathering 2019 Photos
Our special summer evening will be back following two years of COVID.
July 24th at 7:00 pm! Open to all; free! Let's celebrate kindness ...
In lieu of all the sadness and pain in the world these days, once again, I just feel an intense need to do something positive, uplifting ... abut being kind to one another. (Yes, I know - we should be kind 24/7, 12 months a year.) As many of you know, I always celebrate by birthday with World Kindness Day. Today, I'm announcing our second "Kindness Gathering." It'll be located in the field behind The Paddle. A vigil, of sorts, with music and laughter and kindness. Please join me for a celebration of our better angels. I'll post more details in early June. Please mark your calendars and save the evening of Sunday, 7/24th.
Parents, bring your kids - both the two-legged and four-legged ones.
This is a non-political event. It's a kindness event.
Thanks for reading,
Mandy
