Summer Solstice 2021 Celebration and Remembrance

Mark your calendars now for the FREE Summer Solstice Festival 2021, hosted by Penn Forest and Spiritworks,`and plan to enjoy the sun that shines on each being on planet earth.  Join with people of centuries past in this midsummer celebration. They understood that Solstice' (Latin: 'solstitium') means 'sun-stopping', because it is the point where the sun appears to rise and set --and stops and reverses direction after this day.
