For over a decade, TG families and friends have gathered with homemade lanterns to welcome winter's darkness, celebrate the changing seasons and connect as a community – both locally and nationwide.This is a PUBLIC community event, ALL are welcome. Registration is preferred, but not required. https://www.rootednaturegroup.com/fall-lantern-walk
This beautiful tradition serves as the culmination of our Fall season and provides us all with joyful anticipation of our Winter season to come. The event itself is designed to help children (and all of us) learn to embrace change as we connect to the cycles and rhythm of nature. When we are in community with the natural world and with one another, we have the hope, strength and light to thrive through the winter to come and all days.
MEETING SPOT: We will meet at the trailhead at the woods at the back of the park (near the baseball diamonds). If you are having trouble finding this location please call Leanne at 248 514 9472.
WHAT TO BRING: Please bring one or more lantern(s) per group. If you are currently without a lantern, you can turn an empty jar into a gorgeous lantern! Paper bags and cardboard boxes with holes punched in them are also great DIY options. No matter which light you bring, battery operated tea lights will be provided at the event to make your lantern(s) glow (while supplies last).
WHAT TO EXPECT: Warm drinks (tea and naturally sweetened hot cocoa) will be available while supplies last. We will all gather in a community circle around 4:45 to sing songs and light lanterns, then enjoy an outdoor, lantern-lit walk through the 3/4 mile loop in the woods. You can download our Lantern Walk song sheet to familiarize yourself with the songs we’ll sing. After the hike, those who have time can gather around to listen to a flashlight-lit story.
PHOTOS: We will take photos at the event and look forward to sharing them within our Tinkergarten community. Please share your photos too using #Tinkergarten and #TGLanternWalk.
Please know that ALL are welcome to join in this special tradition. Encourage neighbors and friends to register too. Or, just come!
