DRUMMM Rhythmic Events

The band is back together! (Well, not exactly the band. More like the dynamic drummm duo). Always a treat to play with Aaron Kierbel

Thanks to Mission Hospice for hosting the “Rhythms of Remembrance” annual DRUMMM Circle for grief relief. What a special group, place, and time. 💛

When participants describe the DRUMMM experience better than I can. ❤️

“Sharing a unique drumming experience like this reminded me that while we each beat to the sound of our own drum, when we come together in unison — or even in accompaniment — we can create something truly beautiful. Much like in networking and collaboration, different rhythms and strengths can work together to make great music in our Provisors community.

A great reminder that connection, teamwork, and community are often built in the most unexpected ways.”

🥁 6 days. 8 DRUMMM experiences. 379 participants. 488 miles.

From Friday through today:

1. Mentoring for Success — San Francisco (20 participants)
2. Kids Birthday Party — Mill Valley (50 participants)
3. Universal Drumming Class — Berkeley (15 participants)
4. Oakland Public Library — Oakland (120 participants)
5. AmeriCorps — San Francisco (15 participants)
6. St. Helena Library — St. Helena (80 participants)
7. Project Next Leadership Retreat — Joaquin Miller Park (9 participants)
8. West Valley College Leadership Retreat — Saratoga (70 participants)

Every group was unique. Different ages, backgrounds, goals, and settings.

But the themes that emerge are remarkably consistent: connection, belonging, appreciation, inclusion, joy, community, and being truly in sync with one another.

This graphic was created live during today’s West Valley College Leadership Retreat. It captured the spirit of the experience better than I ever could.

Many beats. One groove.
DRUMMM!! ❤️🥁
