Water is a simple substance, but a complex issue. Expert speakers will explore aspects of this fundamental natural resource, crucial to all of life. Join “old shoalers” and new friends in sharing a welcoming community, vital traditions, provocative exchanges of ideas, fun activities, inspirational worship and the joy of Star Island’s natural beauty.

Minister: Rev. Carlton Smith of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington, VA.
