Hello Creative Community Council!
A group of four (Judy, Alana, Sharon and Collin) met today at Collin's
house and spent a good part of our gathering doing check in and
response time. We realized that this is the big gift of our coming
together: to share what we are up to and asking for support and with
our networking and challenges. In this way, we mentor each other and
stay current with some exciting projects (learnings, events) happening
around us. Another topic we explored is how/when to expand our CCC
group. There is a shared belief that a strong commitment (i.e.
regular attendance to meetings) builds connections and the power of
the group. We also discussed the advantage of having a manageable
size gatherings (say, 8 people max) to keep the sharing intimate and
within the time allotted. Since the Sat 10-12am time slot does not
work for everyone, a second circle meeting at an alternate time is
one creative solution that would allow for expansion. That said, we
are curious who can attend our next meeting which will be:
Saturday, October 20 from 10-12 am at Sharon Hoyer's house, 4545
McNeill St (home phone no: 360-344-4249)
If you know that you can't make it, or would like to help initiate a
second circle, let us know. If you know that you no longer want to
be part of this gathering, make that be known as well. One way we can
spread the word to all our members is via a monthly email that lists
relevant updates/events. We are looking for someone to gather this
data and organize a group email in lieu of taking notes at the
meeting(s) or sending out individual announcements. If perhaps you
are finding each single response coming to your mailbox a bit much,
you can visit your Google groups web page and under "my
membership" (to this group) and select "abridged email" that bundles
all responses and delivers one email at the end of the day. May this
group feed your sense of connection and foster great dreaming.
In love and light, Sharon
p.s. one reason the next meeting is later in the month is because
October 5-7 is the Northwest Permaculture Convergence (http://www.northwestpermaculture.org/
) held out at Fort Flagler. Judy will be one of the keynote speakers
on Friday. Please come!

Hi Folks--->>>
I can be there for October's meeting at Sharon's House on the 20th. I'm very much looking forward to reconnecting with everybody, and hearing about summer adventures.
I feel very grateful that the CCC has continued to meet, albeit in smaller groups, through the summer months--we all knew in advance about summer's scattering tendencies, and it seems that being conscious about it prepared us well to survive it! Now fall's here and we can reassemble.
Hope to see you at the Permaculture Convergence, as well as at Sharon's in October. Our Kindie band will be offering a Children's Show, I will be leading a Zone Zero workshop, and our Bcollective homestead on Marrowstone will be part of the bike tour, as well as offering a PCC shoulder event on Monday and Tuesday Oct 8/9---a hands-on strawbale duck and chicken house project!! Stay tuned, and meanwhile.......
Big ripe blackberries to all--->>>nala

I, too, will be at Sharon's in October, on the 20th. I am glad, as is Nala, that this group did decide to meet thru the summer, and truly hope that some of you, or all of you, who were initially engaged/invited to participate in this return to collaborate and share in moving forward with creative intention and
offers of support.
I want to remind people on this list that David Pond, Olympia's wonderful astrologer, will be in Port Townsend from Sept 27-Oct 1st, doing both chart readings and a talk on the Mayan Calendar and 2012. More info in the next week's Community Billboard, or just contact me at ligh...@olympus.net

RIPE Blackberries to all. Timing for
me is still challenging. October is Madrona's second biggest
month with three residential programs...things will settle down
afterwards into a more available pace. Staying tuned until then.
Love the energy of the group.

Arg! I feel like it, missing all the juicy gatherings.
The weekend of the 20th is a ritual weekend with Danny Deardorff
Which we gather 5 times a year.
Big love to you all.
