UUSF has a number of events that occur once a year. Learn about each here.
Every year in October, we host an auction party to fundraise for UUSF. For the latest information about the date, the theme, and volunteering opportunities, read the Flame.

Our Annual Holiday Faire takes place every December! In 2024 it will happen on December 8. Come peruse homemade wares and enjoy food and drinks.
You're invited to our Seders, held in April every year. Check our website or the Flame for more details.
Every year, UUSF holds a fundraising auction in October. In 2024, the theme was Garden Party and the auction featured a live band, homemade German and Japanese food, and other fun festivities.

ANNUAL RETREAT 2025
May 24-26, 2025
We are ready to return to Sonoma Country to enjoy time with friends and family. We’ll spend our first evening at the campfire making s’mores, singing campfire songs, and staring up at the star-filled night sky. There will be time to enjoy a walk in the woods, read a book, or play games. We’ll have fun workshops and fun worship. We’ll dance the Happy Dance at the Talent Show. Come and rejuvenate the spirit. You’ll be glad you did.
The CYO Retreat Center has comfortable dormitory cabins, showers and bathrooms, a swimming pool, a pond for canoeing, archery, tennis and basketball courts, and beautiful trails. CYO is up the road from Wild Flour Bakery, famous for their sticky buns; local wineries; the town of Occidental; and close by to the Russian River. Retreaters bring their own bedding, towels, and toiletries.

Registration information coming in 2025!
