The Background, Goals & People Behind Earthdance Network

Hi Earthdancers -
I am taking an excerpt from a recent email I sent out to the Earthdance Promoters because not only does it give you the background and intentions of the network, I think it really encapsulates the stellar (and often "behind the scenes") team that has powered Earthdance International & now the Earthdance Network.
