Youth Night, Wednesday, April 24
It’s back! We’re reinstating “Youth Night in the Zendo” at Arnold Park on Wednesdays from 6:00-7:00 pm. This program is tailored to children nine years and over. We begin by gathering in the Link or dining room before heading into the zendo. The general structure is three short rounds of zazen (divided over 30 minutes), followed by a snack and board game. Of course, parents are welcome and encouraged to sit with their children!
Please note that we will not hold Youth Night during sesshin or any time the Center is closed. If you’d like to participate on April 24th, RSVP to Chris Maley.
