SO, here’s the deal. We (a lot of us) are going to do two things at once.
On May 15th & 16th, 2010, we are going to break the planet’s record for the largest and longest continuous rhythm drum circle* ever held, and at the same time, raise awareness and incredible amounts of money for assistance, education and cures for one of the most nefarious diseases known to man.
We will throw ourselves at eradicating cancer and have a blast doing it! (OK, three things at once…).
Cancer just plain sucks and needs to be made history. Wiped out. Scratched off the “worry if I have it or if I’ll get it” list. Sadly enough, at some point in your life, the chances are great that you will be affected by the disease.
Here’s how drumSTRONG works.
Register (www.drumstrong.org). Then you, the amazing individual that you are, will ask all of the folks you know to support your efforts in this event by sponsoring your hourly participation. You want to drum for the love of it and to be a part of this greatness.
Individuals, families, drum corps., local and celebrity artists will participate. Pros and average Joes - "...all together now"!
What you get. Blisters, likely; sore arms & hands, definitely! A healthy, elevated spirit ultimately – and maybe even a prize for playing the longest, raising the most funds or bringing the most participants. We have some beautiful percussion instruments donated as prizes, including a treasured, handmade djembe.
drumSTRONG™ will be professionally filmed and recorded. Local and national organizations have featured stories and newscasters from TV and radio stations will be on site reporting.

Misty Meadows Farm 455 Providence Rd. S. Weddington, N.C. 28173 (just south of Charlotte).
In the pastures…
*drum circle - multiple and varied percussion instruments rhythmically struck to create a harmonic vibration by multiple and varied human instruments (not necessarily ‘in the round’).
