SUMMARY:Spring Solar Tilt
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Tuesday\, May 12\, 2026 | 5:00-8:00 pm\nYou and your family are invited to participate in the 3rd Annual Spring Solar Tilt\, a hands-on community event where we gather together to celebrate green energy\, honor the changing seasons and pray for the earth. Capacity is limited\, so register if you are coming! \nHoly Wisdom Monastery is proudly a net-zero facility\, having implemented solar energy and geothermal heating and cooling in 2024 in our Retreat & Guest House. \nThe monastery’s 30-panel solar array can be tilted vertically or horizontally\, depending on the season. The panels are currently in their more vertical position which helps to shed snow and catch the lower winter sun more efficiently. They must each be manually hand-cranked by teams of three people into their flat spring/summer orientation. Individuals\, families\, and teams from the community and local businesses are all invited to come be a part of this unique event! \nThere is no cost for this event unless you sign up for dinner before the tilting. Register below to let us know you’ll be coming. Each family will be responsible for one handle. \nDinner will take place in the Monastery Dining Room before going outside to begin the Tilt. Parking space may be limited\, so bring your friends\, but please carpool if you can. Dress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear for uneven terrain. \nSchedule \nCome for all or part of the program. \n4:45 pm – Doors open\n5:00 pm – Dinner ($15 per person\, kids 6 and under eat free)\n5:50 pm – Program & Tilt Instructions\n6:15 pm – Solar Panel Tilting\n6:30-8:00 pm – Lawn games for all ages\, s’mores around the patio firepit\, self-guided prairie walks and opportunities to talk with experts on both green energy and native prairie ecosystems \nCost\n$0 – Tilt participant or observer \n$15 – Tilt participant or observer plus optional dinner (kids 6 and under eat free) \nRegister\nPlease register below by May 11\, 2026 if you plan to participate/observe and May 4\, 2026 if you plan to attend the optional dinner. \nIf the event cannot take place on May 12\, 2026 due to weather\, May 13\, 2026 has been selected as the backup option. \n \n  \n\n\nWatch the video below to learn how to tilt the solar panels\n \n \n\n \n  \n  \n
