The Grandmother Council Project would like
to welcome members of the Corvalis Raging Grannies.
These wise women elders are being honored
for their profound contribution to the healing of the people
and the Earth.
Living Earth Circle’s Grandmother
Council honors the women elders of our community and creates
a unique forum for their wisdom and expertise to be shared.
The event is open to men, women and
children and features a public Council of Women Elders, a broad
spectrum of workshops on personal wellness and social and environmental
responsibility, and an Honoring Ceremony for “Women of
Age and Wisdom”.
CALLING
FOR 2007 VOLUNTEERS:
Anyone
who wants to be involved with the project is welcome
(this is an invitation for the community, not just
women elders)
