You must come try Pete Seeger’s newest vision: a tent called the “Circle of Gospel” where the audience will sing with and learn from gospel groups in an interactive songfest.

PeaceSmiths has had a table every year, at the direction of Susan Blake, with artwork by Frank, and with lots of volunteers swirling about. Frank and Priscilla are on board to help. Nancy Jane is a Clearwater volunteer and will lend PeaceSmiths a hand when needed. And, this year, the folks at Clearwater will pay tribute to Susan with some words in the brochure and other sentimental touches. Of course, PeaceSmiths will have a table and, the cow game!

Please visit…or, would love it if people could stop by and take a 2 hour shift or so. If you need to reach us, you can leave messages on our home phone 631-422-4702 and we will try to keep checking in remote. Or, call Ian’s cell.
