2006 Community Activities

Happening all day on the field

Rock Climbing Wall
Rock climbing offers an exciting total body workout combining grace, precision, and skill. We’re thrilled to have Rhode Island Rock Gym, as one of this year’s sponsors. They have generously brought one of their Rock Climbing Walls for young and old alike to test their skills.

Alternative Energy Vehicles
Please be sure to visit the fleet of vehicles down on the main festival field to find the latest technologies that can curb greenhouse gas emissions and reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. Details on the vehicles can be found on fact sheet on each vehicle.

Complimentary Massage Therapy
Ongoing massage sessions will run 5 to 15 minutes. Local practitioners will be available at the Massage tent to answer any questions about Massage and Acupuncture. Amy Sundstrom is a licensed and nationally certified Massage Therapist. She is the owner of Coventry Massage Therapy Associates and works with additional practitioners to offer various forms of Massage Therapy, Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine.

All day on the upper grounds

Labyrinth
The image of the labyrinth goes back to prehistoric times in many human cultures and walking the labyrinth is a different experience for each person. It can be a way of quieting the mind or meditation, a metaphor for the path of one’s life, or a way of asking questions and getting answers about life decisions. This festival favorite was developed by Apeiron architect, Paul Scharf & his wife Kathleen.
