Little Worlds Workshop blends hands-on creativity with storytelling as children build a miniature habitat inside a special container. Participants arrange materials like moss, stones, crystals, natural elements, and themed accents to shape their own tiny landscape. After the scene is complete, each child selects a creature to live there, gives it a name, and learns about its role in the environment they designed. Everyone heads home with a finished Little World, an adoption certificate for their new companion, and a unique creation to enjoy long after class. This month’s theme is Dragon Hollow, a setting of rocky cliffs and crystal caves where dragons guard hidden treasures. Children craft a personalized dragon habitat with imaginative details, then adopt a dragon friend to bring their world to life and take home.

The Feast of Champions at the REALTORS® Association of Citrus County celebrates the conclusion of the Citrus County Hunger Games, a countywide effort where organizations collected food and donations to support local families with children. In this competition, each food item counts as one meal point, and each dollar given counts as two meal points. Districts span the community, including banks and financial institutions, schools and education, local government and public safety, realtors, insurance and mortgage professionals, healthcare, local businesses and retail, skilled trades and construction, and nonprofits, churches and civic organizations. At this gathering, community leaders, sponsors, volunteers, and competitors come together as each district champion is honored, the overall Tribute is announced, and countywide impact totals are shared, highlighting how many children and families were supported.

Part of the WellSpring Recovery System, this free community workshop at NAMI Hernando centers on nervous system self-regulation and energy healing through hands-on practice. It is designed as an accessible introduction that also supports those with prior experience, focusing on doing rather than discussion as participants move, breathe, and settle into stillness. A modular format offers a sampling of approaches such as yoga, tai chi, qigong, breathwork, energy and acupressure techniques, sensory awareness, and meditation, with brief awareness practices to open and close the session. The aim is to help build a practical toolkit for meeting difficult moments and taking an active role in personal healing. This workshop is one element of a six-tier program that also includes talks, literature review, community connection meetings, journaling groups devoted to discovering the authentic self, and Sanyama sessions that blend EFT with guided meditation.
