Special Events and Traditions at Sandbridge
Sandbridge is about much more than the workshop and the actual class time. It is about building a community and sharing. Along those lines, there are many informal and formal events and traditions. If you have a talent you would like to share with us, let Ken know. Here are some of the many traditions and events that happen during the week.
