Treasurer
Sam Hohmann –
Mrs. Hohmann accepted the role of Church of the Greenwood Treasurer in 2015. She has been active in the Pagan community for two decades, although her interests in the Craft trace back to early childhood. She has served numerous roles in the Syracuse Pagan Pride Project, most notably that of vendor coordinator and financial manager. She has trained and/or studied in numerous branches of the Pagan world tree, including Wicca, Druidry, Greek, and Egyptian; she combines these various schools with her first love, the deep spirituality of Nature. She is called upon in a one-on-one role as a practical spiritual advisor, but is also adept at extending her spirituality to groups through carefully considered rituals. A skilled artist and craftsperson, she brings her unique and magical spiritual vision to her work.
Secretary
Esmerelda Dawn –
Half a Century old witch, Esmerelda has been around long enough to know that we need to pick up after ourselves and take responsibility for what we consume and it’s aftermath. Initially trained as a Gardnerian Wiccan and High Priestess and after wondering the long and winding path of paganism has discovered her own path. That of the Emsereldian Way.
