Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Slow Days

[Robert (robert]

The difference is that community agreed to have NO meetings, work days or 
whatever on that day.  The closest Eno Commons comes to that is that we do not 
schedule meetings or community events on Western Christian/Jewish religious 
(i.e. Passover/Pesach, Easter) or secular holidays (i.e. Memorial Day weekend, 
Gay Pride Day weekend).  Every year I confirm with the community that the list 
of dates I have are the holidays we wish to observe.  This is to ensure that 
should someone one else moves in who follows a different faith (i.e. Islam), 
those important holidays are captured on my list.
