"It's a gathering to rhythm. It's the beat of community, the beat of hope. Music truly is universally engaging all ages, wages and stages of health." -drumstrong
Hey Everyone,
Camping and Drumming and Helping ...
You've heard me (seen me) mention this amazing event before. It's coming up again this May so I wanted to pass the word on in plenty of time for you all to plan and spread the word. It's amazing and fun, fun, fun!!! Click on the picture/logo link about for detailed information.
Here are a couple of my own pics from last year's event ... it was amazing!

INFO: (from drumstrong website)
Here's the Deal :: We (a lot of us) are going to do two things at once ::
We are going to break the planet’s record for the Longest continuous rhythm *Drum Circle* ever held (and possibly the Largest!), drum with people globally (simultaneously) and at the same time, raise awareness and incredible amounts of money for survivorship assistance, education and research for one of the most nefarious diseases known to man.
We will throw ourselves at eradicating cancer, fortify our friends, families and ourselves, glean useful info about the resources available to address cancer and have a blast doing it!
