We are so excited to invite you - after a two year pause - to the traditional Maifest that has become such a beloved activity of our school. Maifest celebrates the end of the long winter, and the beginning of warm weather and light. It’s a time of reawakening and joy! Best of all… it’s a fun reason to have a party. Traditionally, a Maibaum (maypole) is set up to mark the day, there are streamers, dances, wreaths and ribbons… To learn more about Maifest.

When & where:

Maifest will take place on May 1st, 2-4pm at the Harlow Platts Park picnic shelter on Viele Lake, Gillaspie Drive, in South Boulder. Parking is available close to the shelter. The shelter has a few picnic tables and restrooms are close by. 

Activities:
