Email Story: Hagerstown church opens labyrinths to public

Yvonne Pfoutz says she doesn’t care much for that “new-age stuff.” However, a few minutes spent listening to ambient music and walking the circular path of a labyrinth does help her clear her head and relax. “There’s something going on there,” Pfoutz said. “There’s some process to walking it that helps you think.” Pfoutz, a member of the board of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Hagerstown, said the church has had two labyrinths open to the public for about four years. The outdoor and indoor labyrinths are available on the second Sunday of each month at the church on Cearfoss Pike.
