Earth Day @ Lakeside Park
Celebrate Earth Day at Lakeside Park!
4:00pm-5:30pm Let’s Go Fly a Kite!
Let’s Go Fly a Kite is a fun workshop for all ages. Meet at the Rotary Pavilion to make and fly a kite. All materials provided. Children must be accompanied by an adult. REGISTER BELOW!
Max. 20 participants.
5:30pm-6:30pm
Join The Nelson Interfaith Collaborative on a walking meditation around the labyrinth at Lakeside Park. Enter in silent reflection with gratitude for all the gifts we receive from the earth.
6:30pm-7:00pm
Join us in a procession to Lakeside beach, co-creating a beautiful Earth altar mandala, where each offering becomes a prayer of gratitude and a call for unity, balance, and peace.
Gather in circle with song, drum, story, and prayer as we create together. In honor of Earth Day, we will offer shells, flowers, seeds, and leaves—infused with our prayers—to honor Mother Earth and the elements: earth, fire, water, and wind.
With Eva Tree, Nancy Brown, Maud Nicolaas, Heather Hutchinson; Trevor Scott on hand pan and Thomas Hikes on flute.
