    Great point Capricia.

    Time is short and we need to do what works fast.

    HL Ceinwen has some wonderful pole that she has designed for her    banners.

    Capricia, simple dances are great for the children and will give them
some time to burn off energy. Along with the horseshoes, and the dragon
    march they may all fall asleep before the sun sets. Okay I can hope.

       to make dipped candles.

        Older children will like this and the adults may like this too.

    A wonderful teacher !!!! I hope your students parents realize how blessed
they are.

    Lavina, has some great ideas for the children activities I think we should

        With all the talent in our canton, the Glaslyn event could become a
