Heart of the Ozarks Pagan Pride Day

Pathways Sanctuary would like to thank everyone who attened our annual Pagan Pride event.  Although the weather was cold and blustery 188 brave souls ventured out to share in the comraderie and blessing that has become Heart of the Ozarks Pagan Pride Day.

We haven't officially weighed it yet, but a rough estimate of "over 150 lbs" of food was collected and donated to the local food bank.  We would like to thank those who gave abundantly to those less fortunate!

Gavin and Yvonne Frost of West Virginia joined us again this year.  Gavin led a class in circle dancing through which we have discovered we have two left feet and no sense of rhythm.

 David Crawford of the Ozark Mountain Proto Grove, a branch of the Neo-Pagan Druid faith Ár nDraíocht Féin, did a interesting and in-depth lecture on the Druid faith which generated huge amounts of interest!  Thank you David for everything you do for the pagan community.

Douglys stopped in with his backpack guitar and entertained us with rousing minstrals, sad ballads and just good ole toe tapping music!!  Thank you Douglys!

One of our sponsors, Ravenswood's Herbal would like to thank everyone who came and stocked up their herb cabinets!

Dragonfyre Reiki, would like to thank everyone who visited their booth, chatted and experienced reiki!

Barry and Lorraine of Passages, another of our sponsors brought handmade  and reiki infused items from Barry's workbench.  Lorraine did her indepth and informative Angel Card readings.  Thank you Barry and Lorraine!

Kraig of Sol Invinctus, OTO dropped by with an information booth and lots of really great ideas for next year's Pagan Pride event!  We really enjoyed having you with us and look forward to working with you next year!

Antares and Moonpie drove a LONG way to join us and to celebrate in being Pagan.  Oh, and they brought some really cool stuff too!!
