In the darkest days and the darkest nights of a New England winter and a national malaise, after the “Twelve Days of Stockpiling” of the consumptive holidays, an assembly of people will cluster together on the sand flats in Provincetown Harbor to sing, chant and purge personal, political and psychic detritus from the previous year. It’s January 7, 2026 and the president of the IRS (International Re-Rooters Society), Jay Critchley, will once again officiate over this deep-rooted, historic, global ritual - 4:00 pm, Breakwater Hotel, East End, Provincetown Harbor.
