I haven't been to any LW meetups but I'll be hosting my own small solstice gathering in central Ohio. I gather from your posts surrounding the solstice meetup that you intend for the ritual portion to be adaptable, and for people to modify it as they need? If this is the csae, I'll be pulling some meditations and song recommendations from the 2011 solstice PDF -- is there an updated 2012 version yet reflecting changes based on your experience running it?

Awesome! Have you already talked to daenerys? There were several Ohio people who were considering making the trip to NY but hadn't worked out the logistics last time I checked. Holding a local event may make more sense.

Send me a pm with your e-mail address and I'll send you what I have so far.

What date are you expecting to hold it?

I can't make it because of a family obligation, and if I can't make it, I doubt any of the other locals will either. :/ Some day!

I would also love to have the info for the rituals. My boyfriend and I are having an Solsti-pocalypse Wedding Party, which I would love to make an annual event with Traditions (it would be a Solsti-pocalypse-iversary in the following years).

About to pm brainiac with info on the local stuff.

It's going to be a combination Solstice event slash housewarming party as my wife and I recently moved (are still in the process of moving, actually) so I hope nobody's offended if I don't make an open invitation. I am totally open to the idea of attending another meetup though but my availability (due to my work) is quite limited. Our event is the evening of the 21st.
