Charles has maintained some important friendships over long years—one since first grade. He is also a kind of bridge builder as he has been the only black member of several communities at various times in his life. Now he has come to live as the first black member of the Fellowship Community.

This year's event will take place in Hilltop House, the main parking lot and surrounding buildings.

With deep love and respect, we share the passing of Ann Scharff—beloved friend, mother, grandmother, mentor, co-founder (and angel) of the Fellowship Community, and quiet force of compassionate service.

This year's event will be back up the hill, in Hilltop House, the main parking lot and surrounding buildings.
