Hold a full one-liter beer stein out in front of your body— the person who holds the Stein the longest and does not spill wins.

About Porsche Club of America Musik-Stadt Region
The Musik Stadt Region (MSK) of the Porsche Club of America (PCA) currently has over 1000 members within the Middle Tennessee area. Musik Stadt Region was organized due to a chance meeting between Chuck Eldred and John Hudson at a gas station in Brentwood, TN, in 1981. Both Porsche owners agreed that Nashville should have its own PCA region and decided to work together to make it happen. Chuck was a DJ on FM 106 and had the means to publicize an organizational effort on his show. John’s role was to handle all the administrative details to get a charter from PCA.

Nature Poetry Workshop

Nature Poetry Workshop, Owl’s Hill Nature Sanctuary, Brentwood
Join us once a month to read and write poems that respond and engage with nature. During our time together, we will look closely at several examples of nature poetry and discuss the nuts and bolts of how such poems are crafted. We will also think about why the poet chose to consider certain specific elements of the natural world to be included in their work. Once we read a few poems for inspiration and guidance, we will then let the beautiful surroundings of Owl’s Hill Nature Preserve be our further motivation and personal muse by trying our own hand at writing poems. I will offer prompts to help encourage our creative process.
This workshop will be one that might generate full or maybe just the beginnings of poems. The organization of the class will be as such: discuss poems, split up to write our own poems, come back together to share what we came up with. By encouraging each other’s drafts, I hope we will all walk away with the potential for a strong, nature-inspired poem.
$45 per workshop or $120 for the 3-class series (each workshop can be taken independently)
