"Bards of Caer Pugetia
Bards of Turtle Island
of Seattle, Washington, USA
seeded by The British Druid Order

From ages long since past, before written history and clouded in the mists of time, the Druid order rekindles in the hearts and minds of a new generation. The Spirit of Mother Earth and Father Sun awaken in the hearts of the people.

We are just over 200 Bards who hold Gorsedds and Eisteddfod eight times per year. As Bards of Turtle Island (America) we have not only natural holy places with ancient trees and forests, native sites, but also modern Henges like the Stonehenge replica in concrete on the Columbia Gorge, or the stone circles made in our era. Although we once had frequent access to the Columbia Gorge Stonehenge Monument, we no longer frequent this site due to increasing difficulties with communications pertaining to the site, and difficulties in funding.

Our Goddess is personified as Pugetia, and our God Pugetius. For us they are the male and female powers of Puget Sound. There are offices elected by the Gorsedd and held for a year. We also have an elected Priestess and Priest, as well as a purse warden. We aspire to have access to raw land near the city, but we presently meet in Seattle City Parks or other convenient places. Our seven to eight yearly meetings are open to all and are free of charge.
...
We were founded in Volunteer Park April 20th, 1997 by Denis M., Emma Restall Orr, Leon R. and Philip Shallcrass. That day we empowered about 80 people. We hope you will join us for future events if you are in the area. "
