Wisteria Sacred Sites Area

We have dedicated just under 3 acres on the Eastern end of the camp as our Sacred Sites area. Presently, there are two Earthworks -- a Turtle Mound (upper right) and the Ancestor Mound (upper left) built by the community and visitors.  The largest feature is a 125-foot (38.1 meter) diameter stone circle marked with quarter stone structures.  Community workings build and improve this area with purposeful intent.  A sweatlodge in the forest is tucked into a nearby hillside.  A shady grove of locust trees near some bluffs is a perfect meditation space.  Recently, a community art installation entitled "The Community Fire" was created by community and guests.  This is a no-camping open area that can hold many hundreds of people for dancing, weddings, ceremonies or any activity that needs some open space.

 

We welcome submissions of your stories about Sacred Sites and will post them to share.
