We scheduled a Half-Day Retreat at Siena Retreat Center
5637 Erie St, Racine
Saturday, June 24, from 2:00 pm until 6:00 pm. 

Siena Center is a serene place, right by Lake Michigan, It offers comfortable meeting places and enjoyable outdoor space for walking meditation.

This is especially (but not exclusively)  for Zen students, who live at a a distance from MZC and cannot regularly sit in the zendo.

It costs $10 per person, and you may make a donation to MZC if you'd wish.

Please let me know as soon as possible, because I need to give the center the number of participants. 
There will be free coffee and tea available in the dining room, and I will bring a snack for a tea break.

2:00 introduction
2:20 zazen
2:50 kinhin
