Hi, this is Dave Becker along with my beloved Esther to tell you about the theme of this year's retreat. It is a Celebration of love, peace & music, We could leave it there, but let's breakout some parts of the song, "Woodstock",  written by renowned folk/rock singer from the sixties Joni Mitchell, not Crosby, Stills, & Nash, as many believe. 

"Well I came upon a child of God."
(We are all children of God. Is this not Christ Consciousness?)

"Got to get back to the land and set my soul free."
(When you come through our gates with the majestic mountains and abundant trees your soul will be uplifted and free.)

"And we got to to get ourselves back to the garden."
(This is a metaphor, even though we have an actual garden, the expression, Grow your own Garden, applies.)

"I have come to lose the smog. And I feel a cog in something turning."
(Come out to the country where the air is sweet. Where we can express ourselves in a free and loving way. We may not be the whole picture, but we are certainly a part of it.)

"And I dreamed I saw the bomber death planes, riding shotgun in the sky, turning into butterflies across our nation." (It's about time. Actually. it's way past time, for fear, war and hatred to give way to peace, love and compassion. The way of the Peaceful Warrior.)

And there you have it, Peace, Love, and Music!!
