Merry Meet All =) So happy I finally found some info on the Samhain Ritual on Gallows Hill! I try to go every year but always end up missing it QQ....should of just looked it up, least I got smart this year LOL. Anyways I was just wondering if everyone is meeting up on Gallows Hill or walking up to it like I have seen in years past. I think one year I remember a banner with the Wiccian Pagan Press Alliance leading it. If there is a walk up to it is everyone meeting at the warf like in years past and what time please! I don't want to miss it again. I come from out of state so I tend to get lost finding it in the sea of people.
Thanks so much in advance!
