Time of Transition for Drum-enChant Circle
Dave C. and Eva Friedner have be co-facilitating the Drum-enChant circle for about 4 years now. We started out this collaboration of group drumming and chanting in Northbridge, then migrated to Uxbridge. After the tragic fire that destroyed the yoga studio that was hosting us, we found our new home at the Enchanted Fox in Medway MA. For the past two years, we've had a series of wonderful monthly gatherings to share the spiritual connection that drumming and chanting can create. But circumstances have changed, and we are now in a position of needing to relocate and reinvent this event yet again. So as of July, we will no longer be gathering at the Enchanted Fox. We send our thanks out to Rose and Paul for being our gracious hosts, but now we need to take a break for a couple months while we figure out where to go from here. We're talking to the owners of various venues, as well as discussing how we may want to revamp the format of this circle. Stay tuned for more details as we figure all this out.

Open Drum Circle at Worcester's WCUC Radio Station
On July 31st, Dave C. from Drums For One And All will be facilitating a drum circle in the Front Room of the WCUW radio station in downtown Worcester (right next to the Clark University campus). This circle is open to the public and welcomes drummers of all ages and skill levels. Bring your own drum or percussion instrument if you can, or you can borrow one of the extra drums on hand. This drum circle is an experiment to see what the interest level is for possibly starting a regular monthly circle in Worcester, so come show your support. The cost is only $5 per adult. The address is 910 Main Street, Worcester MA.

Drum Circle at New Dawn Earth Center in July
It's hard to top the pleasure of drumming around a fire on a clear night. So if the weather cooperates, that's what we'll be doing at the New Dawn Earth Center in Cumberland RI on July 23rd. The gathering will start at 7pm and run at least two hours. If the weather isn't so good, we'll drum indoors. Bring your own drum, percussion instrument, or melodic instrument (flute, didge etc), as well as a folding chair to sit on. Some extra drums will be available for borrowing. These events are open to drummers of all ages and skill levels. Also, if the moon is looking good, we may take a short hike up the hill enjoy the night time beauty.

Tenth Anniversary of Drums For One & All
Yes, it's true; DFOA has been around since 2001 when Dave C. started leading his first public drum circle on a monthly basis in Milford MA. Plans are still in the works, but stay tuned for an upcoming anniversary celebration, complete with giveaways, free workshops and a blowout drum and dance celebration. As the date and location get worked out, notices will be sent out on the DFOA mailing list and posted here to let people know more info about the event.
