Registration is OPEN!!! The Summer Gathering is Aug 29 – Sept 1, 2025 at a lovely camp called Enchanted Hills in the beautiful mountains of Napa, California.
The invitation to this event was sent to all of the members on our mailing list in early July of 2025. By clicking the blue button below, you can view that same invitation. The invitation has all the details and a green registration button at the bottom for when you’re ready to take that step.
Details on the assemblies (more than are in the invitation) can be found below this blue box.
Assembly Topics
I. Accepting Ourselves & Others
Explore the courage it takes to drop our mask and be seen. This assembly sets the tone for honest sharing, emotional safety, and connecting more deeply with other men.
II. Building New Friendships
Delve into what creates lasting connections-vulnerability, listening, and healthy boundaries. This assembly invites authentic dialogues and new insight into our new relationships.
III. Embracing Our Differences
Discover how diversity strengthens our connections. Through group reflection and playful explorations, we celebrate the uniqueness each man brings to the circle.
IV. Brotherhood That Lasts
Anchor and build on the friendships made and carry these connections into our daily lives. We’ll close with rituals of gratitude, reflection, and commitment to continued growth and building our community.
