8/1/2007 - The Feast of Lughnasa

Lughnasa named after the Irish god Lugh, was a joyous festival held on August 1(In Christain times it became known as Lammas). Festing, dancing, and genereal revelry went on for two weeks either side of the acutal day. Games were played in a spirit of energetic teamwork.

During the season of Lughnasa, invite family and friends to your version of a barn dance with wine (or juice) and beer and bread to symbolize the grap and the grain. Play Celtic and other joyful music and entice everyone young and old to dance in celebration of the bounty of life.
