Good Beats for Holiday Drum Circle

There will be a full moon drum circle at Aliso Beach from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 12. Hot beverages will be served.

Bring drum, seating (chair or blanket), wood for the fire, and, if you can, a toy to donate to the Children's Hospital of Orange County. In the meantime, enjoy this drum circle poem: A Christmas Valentine 'Twas two weeks before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings weren't hung by the chimney with care. It was way too early for St. Nick to be there. The children weren't nestled all snug in their beds. Their parents weren't stressed, and taking their meds. Instead they were out, all having big fun Down at Aliso, at the full moon drum. This Friday at 7 come to the beach for a treat Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good beat.
