Thus we now have two “campuses” – one in Seattle and one at Sahale. Community
members and friends
easily travel between the
two locations for
retreats, cultural and
training events and
programs, work parties,
and for recreation and
friendship. Our culture
includes gatherings for
women, men, families,
couples, and a group for
people over 60 with the aim to support and learn.
I appreciate the emphasis we have on learning in action, for example, taking on a
leadership role with the understanding that we would learn more about how to
relate with openness, how to work well with conflict and developing agreements,
and the skills of developing a community that would sustain over time. Because
our community places value on leader development and learning about group and
organizational dynamics, we have confidence that we can continue into the
future and that we are learning something of value to offer others.
