My name is Robin Mavis. I've been involved in the Wiccan and Pagan communities regularly for a year now. I'm also a community organizer in my own school district for equal rights for the GLBT community as an ally. I've been asked by Minnesotans United For All Families to be the coordinator for organizing the Pagan and Wiccan faith community to come together and defeat the proposed marriage amendment that will be on our state's ballot November 2012. I understand most covens, lodges, circles and organized groups do not involve themselves politically, but I was wondering if you would be willing to pass on information to your members on how they can contact me if they are interested in joining this effort as individuals. Of course, if your group would be willing to make a formal statement, that would be awesome too! Many congregations of faith are doing so and it would not jeapordize your IRS standing as a non-profit. Religious organizations are allowed to take public positions on ballot issues such as marriage, reproductive rights, etc. They are only restricted from campagning or endorsing individual candidates for political office. I can be reached by email at arm2189@gmail.com I've also started a Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/PAW.MNUnited and am holding a First Footing and Organizing House Party on January 1st. The facebook event is here: http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/events/262181107173641/ Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and I would love to hear from you and if you can offer any suggestions on other groups, organizations or covens to reach out to I would greatly appreciate it!

He is the first openly Pagan Presidential Candidate Hopeful to run within our history. Tyler's "A.C.T." (America Changes Today) is the self-created platform upon which he hopes to create positive change and growth within our political system. Even if he doesn't succeed in his ultimate goal, he has still succeeded where others have not yet traveled. "I currently work two paying jobs and one unpaid job -that latter one being my Progressive Talk Radio Program, 'TMI with Aldous Tyler', which broadcasts live at Noon Central on Saturdays on 91.7 FM here in Madison, and live streams on http://www.wsum.org." If you have never heard of Aldous, please take the time to take a closer look...and support him if you believe it is right to do so. Gary Earl Johnson was born January 1, 1953. He was the 29th Governor of the state of New Mexico. Johnson has been working tirelessly on his current campaign since 2009; "Our America Initiative." This idealology that Johnson has promoted is the basic foundation and the set of principles by which he intends to be the Republican Nominee for the 2012 Presidential Election. Please research the facts about this canidate and support him, if you believe that it is right to do so. Harmony Tribe's Annual Meeting - 2011 10/16/2011

We would like to say, "Thank You!"...to everyone who has supported us these past 17 years...Your words, and deeds have not gone unnoticed. "Thank You"...to our members, students, and teachers for making this a most memorable year. Lodge Yggdrasill is also very pleased to announce that its name, "Lodge Yggdrasill" is a registered trademark of the United States Patent and Trademark Office, under the religious organizations category; and is accepted and recognized internationally. For this, we would like to thank three of our former members and their rogue students for trying to steal our name and our identity within the greater Pagan Community; all the way to the United States Government...Without you, we never would have had to have gone through all of this. So, "thank you" you guys! Thank you for the slander. Thank you for the defamation of character. Thank you for the lies. Thank you for the threats. Thank you for all of the malice and the ill will you could muster amongst yourselves...for we received the most well deserved rewards...VICTORY!!! & HONOR!!! Lastly, some clarification to Our Greater Community: Our "Lodge Kindreds" list is very clear, and current. If a Lodge Yggdrasill Kindred location is not present, it simply does not exist. There are no other Kindreds, other than the ones listed on this website. We hope that this clears up any future questions or misguided gestures by others, in the future. Blessings this Autumn Finding Season, & Heilsa! To All of Our Lodge Kindred Harmony Tribe's Annual Meeting 10/11/2011
