We are very happy to provide website links to other organizations in our area which support the Tri-Cities Drum Circle and link to our website: The Sultana Dancers are a local belly-dancing troupe in the Tri-Cities area, facilitated by Laurie Nearing. The dance troupe has practiced with the Tri-Cities Drum Circle since April 2003 and performed together at several community events including Ye Merrie Greenwood festival, the Arts & Crafts Show at Howard Amon Park, the Benton Franklin County Fair and parade, Tumbleweed, SausageFest and the Women's Expo. The Three Rivers Folklife Society was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, all-volunteer organization serving the folk music community at the confluence of the Yakima, Snake, and Columbia rivers in SE Washington and NE Oregon. Please explore our pages for information on local events-concerts, dances, song circles, and festivals-and for links to regional and world folk music sites. The Tri-Cities Visitor and Convention Bureau offers the community a wealth of resources including a comprehensive community calendar of events. The drum circle's monthly jams are listed for each month there and the organization forwards people to us who are interested in drumming. The Batelle Performing Arts Center is dedicated to improving coordination, collaboration, and cooperation among the non-profit performing arts groups of the Mid-Columbia area and the Tri-Cities, Washington. The center also houses the offices of the Mid-Columbia Symphony and Washington East Opera. Tri-Cities Drum Circle member Carrie Chambers manages this local store which offers belly dancing costumes and accessories as well as a variety of middle eastern drums and percussion instruments. We're very proud to have her website pointing to ours and to have our website pointing to hers. The Tri-City Links website provides our area with a comprehensive community calendar of events, a listing of organizations dedicated to the arts, a roster of local festivals and conventions, sports and recreation centers, and various sources for lectures such as museums and theatres. Drum Central is a hand drum community in Boise Idaho, facilitated by Carolyn Failla and others. They support a rhythm-based lifestyle and community, and have been teaching/facilitating in Boise for over three years. Its roots are actually woven in with the Full Moon Drumming Circle at Farmer Brown's. They sponsor drum/dance workshops and are active within schools and local community organizations - turning people on to an often unfamiliar way of life - rhythmaculture. The volunteers and organizers of this event all came together through their love of rhythm and dance and invite you to join and play! If you have any questions call Carolyn at 208-424-9519 or contact her at failladrum@yahoo.com. The community has a website at www.boisedrumcentral.com as well. The Tri-Cities Drum Circle champions the development of local drumming communities, and we are thrilled the Boise drumming community exists and is growing.
