Atamai Open Day 2013

Phew ... what a day!  Today our village celebrated it's official 2nd open day ever! ... the one held last year turned into a "soak fest" due to the rains, but today the weather gods were kind to us. We had about 80 people turn up including 2 dogs ... no cats were reported, at least not in any official capacity.  After a bit of preparation the weeks prior, the day started with all of us each helping out to set up the central meeting area. This year we decided to gather on Lot 5 which had a couple of small cabins already situated on it. This little fellow was super helpful! Here you see here is carrying a water jug in one hand, and a butter churn dasher in the other. Banners, signs and decorations were set up thanks in part to the local Rudolf Steiner school who lent us some of their decoration materials ... much thanks guys! We also put up a colourful entrance way. It made for a very festive and colourful entrance.
