For those who work the land and those who work with crafts, the mornings usually start pretty early, six or seven o'clock or so. Although this is a small community we do eat on our own time, family meals are the usual. For those who teach and look after the youth of the community, their day usually will start around eight o'clock with a cooking lesson (making breakfast) after collecting eggs and looking after the chickens. Then moving on to environmental lessons which includes a wide range of issues; water consumption, farming techniques and hunting techniques. The work day usually ends around five o'clock where in the winter some travel into the backcoutry to ski and in the summer swimming at the beach is a regular.
There are community dinners that are not required which happens three or four times a mouth, usually most of the community will show up. The meal is somewhat of a celebration of sorts, music is involved and dancing is very much involved. Small gathering show up almost every night in the town center after the days work is over and will stay late into the night playing music, dancing, playing soccer and other sports.
