Located in Guilford and Rockingham counties 15 miles north of Greensboro, Haw River State Park is a unique park that centers on The Summit, a residential environmental education and conference center, accommodating retreats and conferences for groups big or small. The park is also perfect for day-use visitors looking to explore the headwaters of the Haw River. Trails and a boardwalk offer a journey into wetlands and a floodplain swamp, where visitors may see great blue herons and a bounty of other animals.

InterPlay Leaders Gathering (Online)
I wanted to reach out personally to invite you and the wider Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill InterPlay community to an upcoming InterPlay Online Leader’s Gathering, which I’ll be co-facilitating this weekend.
Event Info
https://interplay.org/index.cfm/go/events:event/happening_id/3357
You are welcome to attend the entire gathering, or simply drop in for a couple of special moments that I think Raleigh InterPlayers would especially enjoy. We have a sliding scale for registration this year.
Regional Shoutouts + Early Performance
12:45 PM PT / 3:45 PM ET
This joyful moment in the gathering is when communities from around the country share what’s happening in their regions by offering a short performance form. I would love for the triangle area to be represented in the room.
Another meaningful session will be the InterPlay Memorial & Art of Grieving session on Saturday at 7 PM ET, where we will honor Brian and other InterPlayers and community members we have lost since our last gathering. If someone has some InterPlay pics of Brian with a 3-sentence story, please send them to programs@interplay.org
Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill (the triangle area) has always had such a vibrant InterPlay spirit, and it would be wonderful to reconnect with many of you through the gathering.
If you’re planning to join, please let me know; it’s always special to see familiar faces in the Zoom room.
With appreciation for the Triangle Area community and all the ways you keep play, story, and embodied wisdom alive.
Grateful to be connected,
Christine Gautreaux, MSW
