Connecticuti Eesti Seltsi Suvepäeva Piknik

Join the Connecticut Estonian Society and friends for their annual Suvepäev!

at Connecticuti Eesti Maa (the Connecticut Estonian Grounds)

25 Times Road

Andover, CT 06232

 This year the annual Suvepäev event involves a simple bring-your-own picnic, but good company in a beautiful natural setting is assured. 

Due to the pandemic, people should wear masks, bring their own chairs-picnic blankets for social distancing, and be mindful of the CDC rules for safety. In addition, please bring your own picnic foods and beverages. 

Those not familiar with the property should note that in addition to the main site, there is also a wooded lower tier of land waiting to be explored! (access to a scenic river,  but appropriate footwear is advisable.)

Activities:

1) Carol Klammer will be leading those who are interested in a wellness, movement, and breathing experience. She will be focused on movement and breathing for health and vitality. This will involve both sitting and standing movements using a chair. Participants are asked to bring along a small cushion, or a beach towel. These will be used to soften the chair seats. No experience required, or no other equipment will be needed. Carol welcomes everyone to join her in gentle strengthening and stretching, which are well-established wellness techniques.

2) Kristi Rakfeldt will be organizing a BINGO (SUVI) game, for those that would be interested.

The primary purpose of the picnic is to create a venue where we can be outside together in a beautiful location, after this long period of social isolation that many of us have been living through.

In case of rain, we will convene on Sunday, September 13th at the same time and place.

Sõbrad Suvepäevale!

Pandeemia tõttu peaksid inimesed kandma maske, võtma sotsiaalse distantseerumise jaoks oma toolid kaasa ning pidama meeles CDC eeskirju. Lisaks võtke kaasa oma piknikutoidud ja joogid.

Tegevused:

1) Carol Klammer juhatab neid, kes on huvitatud, heaolu, liikumise ja hingamise kogemusest. Ta keskendub liikumisele ja hingamisele tervise ja elujõu nimel. See hõlmab nii istuvaid kui ka seisvaid liigutusi tooli abil. Osalejatel palutakse kaasa võtta väike padi või rannarätik. Neid kasutatakse tooliistmete pehmendamiseks. Kogemusi pole vaja või muid seadmeid pole vaja. Carol tervitab kõiki, kes soovivad temaga õrnalt tugevdada ja venitada, mis on väljakujunenud heaolutehnikad.

2) Kristi Rakfeldt korraldab huvilistele BINGO (SUVI) mängu.

Peamine pikniku eesmärk on, et saaksime olla koos uhes kaunis kohas pärast seda pikka sotsiaalset isolatsiooni, mida paljud meist on läbi elanud.

Vihma korral koguneme on pühapäeval, 13. septembril samal ajal ja samas kohas.
