Our Dome Grand Opening Celebration

Friends Wilderness Center (Harpers Ferry, WV)

Our Dome Grand Opening Celebration will offer tours of our new Geodesic Dome as well as discussion sessions that explore the legacy of Buckminster Fuller, the geometry of domes, the possibilities afforded by new green technologies such as solar panels, and how each of us can implement sustainability practices for greener living in our homes, at work and at our meetings and places of worship. There will also be balloons for the kids and opportunities to build geometrical models with a 'Zometool Kit' ®. So please come join us for a fun-filled and interesting day that offers something for Friends and family of all ages. If you have a desire to spend the night at the FWC, you can rent a room in the cabin or avail yourself of one of the several more rustic options including the new Dome, the Treehouse, and the Yurt. Tent camping on the lawn is an option as well. Come on out and share in the fun! If you have any questions concerning any of our programs, please email Sheila at snbach@earthlink.net or call 304.728.4820. We ask that you let us know if you are coming to any or all of our events and reservations for a meal are required.
