INVITATION TO THE 2010 SUFI ORDER INT'L SUMMER CAMP IN COLORADO!* Dear Friends, With great enthusiasm and joy it is my pleasure to invite you to the 2010 Sufi Order International Summer Camp in Colorado! We will be gathering at the Shambhala Mountain Center in Red Feather Lakes, Colorado. This is a rare opportunity to have time together in Colorado with Pir Zia Inayat-Khan, Taj Inayat, Aziza Scott, other Sufi Order Senior Teachers, and our new and long-time friends from near and far! We will need plenty of help so those of you who want to volunteer please contact me. This should be a "cushy" camp with no karma yoga kitchen service and no (or not many) bugs! Please also contact me with any questions at 303-544-9434 or Michalenko@aol.com.
