Integration Circle by the Creek - Tonight, 6:30 pm
Join the Psychedelic Society of Arkansas (PSoAR) tonight (Wednesday March 25th) for an evening of connection, reflection, and community at the beautiful Blowing Springs Campground.
As we transition into the energy of March, we invite you to gather around the fire to share your experiences, insights, and questions in a supportive, non-judgmental space. Whether you are navigating a recent journey or simply looking to connect with like-minded community members, this circle is open to you.
The soothing sounds of the nearby creek and the warmth of the campfire will provide a peaceful backdrop for our evening of integration and fellowship.
The Details
Time: 6:30 - 8pm
Location: Blowing Springs Campground, Campsite #7.
Parking: Please park at the Gear Garden and take the short walk over to our campsite.
🪑What to Bring:
A comfortable camp chair.
A campfire snack to share (if you feel inspired!).
Warm layers for the evening air.
We look forward to sitting by the fire with you and holding space for the unique paths we are all walking.
What to Expect
Our integration circles are designed to be informal yet intentional. Here is how our evening by the creek will flow:
A Grounded Beginning: We’ll start with a brief moment of silence or a grounding breath to settle into the space together.
The Talking Circle: Everyone will have an opportunity to share their experiences, insights, or current challenges in a supportive environment.
Open Fellowship: After the formal circle, we’ll enjoy the fire, the snacks, and the ambient sounds of the creek for more casual connection.
Nature-Led Space: Being outdoors at Site #7 allows us to step away from the noise and integrate in a natural, peaceful setting.
This is a free event, but If you feel moved to support PSoAR’s mission and the continued hosting of these community gatherings, we gratefully accept donations via GiveButter. (Suggested donation of $10.) Your contributions help us cover costs for space, supplies, and our community outreach efforts.

PSoAR 1st Annual Bicycle Day Group Ride & Chili Cook-Off
🚲 PSoAR Bicycle Day Ride & Chili Cookoff Fundraiser 🌶️
April 19 | 3:00–6:00 PM
Pedal It Forward Bentonville, 3902 NW Wishing Springs Dr, Bentonville, AR 72712, USA
Admission - Free or Donation
Family-Friendly (kids welcome)
Join the Psychedelic Society of Arkansas (PSoAR) for a community celebration of Bicycle Day — an important date in psychedelic history commemorating April 19, 1943, when Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann rode his bicycle home after intentionally experiencing the effects of LSD for the first time. That historic ride has become a symbol of curiosity, discovery, and community within psychedelic culture.
🚴 The Plan
We’ll gather at Pedal It Forward at 3:00 PM.
• Drop off your chili (see details below) and unload your bike
• Circle up for a brief welcome
• Head out for a relaxed (and decidedly sober) group ride on the Razorback Greenway Trail (this is a paved trail, easy for even the beginnerest of beginners)
• Return for our community Chili Cookoff + social time
This is a fundraising event, with proceeds supporting PSoAR’s educational programming and community outreach throughout Northwest Arkansas.
🌶️ Chili Cookoff Details
Bringing chili? Amazing.
Please:
Bring your chili warm in a crockpot (preferred)
Label your chili with:
Your name
Spice level (Mild / Medium / Hot)
Dietary notes (vegetarian, vegan, contains dairy, etc.)
Arrive by 3:00 PM so we can set up before the ride.
We will provide:
Bowls
Utensils
Drinks
Tasting supplies
Whether you’re competing or just tasting, come hungry.
