Family Sangha (off-site)

April 9, 2017 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am PDT

Family Sangha welcomes those who want to develop dharma practice in a family setting—parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, and more. We offer indoor and outdoor activities for children, expressing values of the Buddha way: compassion, curiosity, generosity, kindness, and mindfulness. Adults have time for meditation, play, and discussion. Please bring snacks, clothes suitable for outdoor play, and remain on the premises for the entire session if you bring children. Please let us know if you are interested in a tween and teen group.

Family Sangha is sponsored by the Sacramento Dharma Center; any dana you can offer for expenses is gratefully appreciated.

Due to a scheduling conflict at the Sacramento Dharma Center building, this meeting will be held offsite, rain or shine.

The venue is Effie Yeaw Nature Center located inside the Ancil Hoffman County Park. Internet mapping software often gives inaccurate directions through San Lorenzo Way but this entrance is permanently locked and the only way to access the Effie Yeaw Nature Center by car is from Tarshes Drive and California Avenue. Click here for complete directions or visit www.sacnaturecenter.net.

Please meet at the kiosk at the entrance to the Nature Center right next to the sidewalk.  It’s the only way to enter once you’ve parked and there is a $5 per car parking fee. This fee pays for a full-day of accessing trails, the museum, and visitor center.

The meeting will last approximately one hour. We are planning various mindful- and nature-based activities for children as well as the adults in and around the Nature Center. Activities may include walking on trails near the Nature Center within Ancil Hoffman County Park.
