**Reflecting on Last Night’s Drum Circle: A Night of Rhythm and Connection**
Last night’s drum circle at Ka-Hoon Campground and Event Center was a resounding success, filled with vibrant energy, rhythmic beats, and a sense of community that brought us all closer together. Despite many of us being novices, the experience was nothing short of magical.
**A Welcoming Gathering**
We were delighted to see a nice group of participants show up, all eager to take part in the drum circle. The atmosphere was electric with anticipation as we gathered around the bonfire, ready to make music under the stars.
**Finding Our Rhythm**
Even though many of us didn’t have prior experience with drumming, that didn’t deter our enthusiasm. The initial uncertainty quickly gave way to spontaneous creativity. With a mix of hand drums, shakers, and other percussion instruments, we started to find our collective rhythm. It was heartening to see everyone encouraging each other, sharing tips, and learning together.
**A Night of Connection**
As the night progressed, the beats became more synchronized, and we lost ourselves in the music. The drum circle turned into a powerful means of expression, where words were unnecessary, and the rhythm did all the talking. Laughter and smiles were abundant, and the sense of connection was palpable.
**Under the Starry Sky**
There’s something incredibly special about making music outdoors, under a blanket of stars. The natural beauty of the New Mexico desert added to the ambiance, making the evening even more unforgettable. The flickering bonfire, the rhythmic drumming, and the vast night sky created a perfect setting for a memorable experience.
**Looking Forward**
We left the drum circle feeling invigorated and looking forward to more such events. The drum circle not only allowed us to explore our musical sides but also fostered a sense of community and shared joy. Whether you’re a seasoned drummer or a complete beginner, we welcome you to join us next time. It’s an experience that promises not just music, but also camaraderie and fun.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the evening special. We can’t wait to drum with you again soon!

General Announcements
We’ve been dealing with the heat and working on staying cool.
A few solar issues arose recently, including a cable being torn off the combiner box. We are unsure how this happened but are currently working on better safeguarding the area to prevent future incidents.
Advocatus Diaboli and the Grim Leafer Band will be performing at Stage Luchetti on June 29th.
Needed
Additionally, we are in need of an old 10×10 canopy frame (or equivalent). We don’t need the top; the frame doesn’t need to be perfect but should be repairable. We plan to decorate it with fairy lights and set it up in the Cahoots Courtyard. If anyone has something that could work, please contact us.
Thank you all for your continued support!
