Irie Boogie 2008 Spread

Yet, here is a lesson, a message of place:
Where each one dwells, here is the center. And so we say, Let the Spirit of the North give us Wisdom, Let the Spirit of the East shine Illumination, Let the Spirit of the South renew our Innocence, Let the Spirit of the West reveal us to ourselves, people, let us honor this land and these directions.....

Bless Up!

The Irie Boogie will be back in 2010! Many blessings to all our friends and family until we meet again - - gathering under the big sky with drums and bass, art and potluck, invoking the Great Spirit and raising the collective vibration as we move in the future.

Stay in touch and anticipate the 7th Irie Boogie in October 2010!


a little history...


Greetings, friends – Let me tell you a bit about the IRIE BOOGIE...it started at my lodge on the top of Bear Butte, in Southern HUMBOLDT COUNTY, CA seven Octobers ago, when my dear friend Garth and I moved in, looked out at the view and immediately knew - - this glorious experience of nature and life had to be celebrated!

The feeling was contagious and our 2 buds, Marisa and Karrin, along with a supportive group of old and new friends came quickly into the fold and the Boogie's spectrum grows brighter and broader from each person's involvement.

The mission is a collective one, to BRING THE PEOPLE TOGETHER AND UPLIFT THEIR SPIRITS!
