Retreat for women at Hypatia-in-the-Woods
Hypatia-in-the-Woods, a retreat and
resource center for women in the arts
and academia, is hosting a celebration
featuring the dedication and opening
of their new Vera Wagner Memorial
Labyrinth and the Jeanne Lehmann
Poetry Trail from 2 to 5 p.m. on Satur-
day, July 23. The event will be held on
the grounds at Hypatia-in-the-Woods,
which is located on Hammersley Inlet,
at 160 Lagoon Lane, just past milepost
5 on Arcadia Road. It is rain or shine.
The grounds, trails and labyrinth
will be open for walking, and social-
izing. The Holly House, which is the
retreat house run by Hypatia-in-the-
Woods, will also be open and party go-
ers will be able to see and read about
some of the work done by former resi-
dents.
The building of a labyrinth on the
property was originally funded by a
generous donation from Me]issa Har-
die of Cornwall in honor of her mother,
Vera Wagner. The funds that enabled
the completion of the project came
from Don Freas of the Freas Family
Foundation. It is located in a meadow
and orchard (Jim Holly's orchard) on
the property.
There are throe walking (and con-
templating) trails being built on the
property as well. The Jeanne Lohm-
ann Poetry Trail will incorporate po-
etry installations along a beautiful
trail through cedar forest and will also
include benches to allow for the con-
