The 3rd Annual Summerland Spirit Festival!

 July 13-21, 2013 • Turtle Lake, Wisconsin

Summerland Spirit Festival is a nine-day experiential spiritual retreat for followers of a nature-based spiritual path.  Nestled within several square miles of wild forest, you will have the chance to heal, reconnect with nature, and make a lot of new friends.  Welcome the dawn from the high peak of the hill covered with apple trees, cool off in the pristine creek that runs through the heart of the festival, dance and drum all night long in the middle of an old-growth hardwood forest, or take some time away to be alone with the abundant wildlife. 

 You will have the option of attending any of the several amazing workshops scheduled each day, or you can take a class on one of the crafts being offered by several artisans, such as blacksmithing, tatting, knitting, leather working, or stone carving.  You can also take a mile-long innertube ride down the creek that winds through the woods.  Each day you will have the option of attending a large community ritual, smaller group rituals, or to do workings of your own at one of the several locations intended for quiet personal work.  At night, there will be live musical entertainment, drumming and dancing, and a bardic circle to share stories and song.  Although there is a lot to do, you won't feel pressured to attend anything.  These are only offered as options.  The most important goal is for you to feel re-energized, refreshed, and renewed as you drive away at the end of the festival.
