Summertime & the Living is Wakonse!


Was it just a couple of months ago that I was in Camp Tontozona in northern Arizona with Wakonse? Three days of celebration, creativity and learning. The motto for Wakonse is " Inspiration and support for college Teaching and Learning".
On Saturday, after 3 days of meetings, dinners, hiking and sharing, we created Chataqua: An evening of poetry and music. Those of us who learned to play a new instrument (I learned to play harmonica, others learned the drums and guitar.) Together with Wiley, we put together a concert, played music, sang and danced.
When it was all over, I made new friends, learned new academic tricks and came away ready to share with library colleagues. Every librarian should Wakonse!
