3) Airbnb/Short Term Stay near Middletown, CA - various options available.
Is Harbin Hot Springs open 24 hours?
Yes, you can soak at any hour of the day - so a post-social late night soak can certainly happen!!!! However, the front desk is open 9am-8pm, so please plan to check in during that time.
What’s my hard earned money going towards?
Rest assured that your ticket fee will go towards the large event venue/PA/table & chairs rental, freshly baked goods at the event, as well as paying our instructors and DJs fairly, and more. You are also supporting a tiny business run by a POC mom of one - while getting an experience of a lifetime!
What if I don’t have enough funds?
We do want to make this event available to those who wish to come but doesn’t have the funds. We have a limited number of VOLUNTEER spots available, so please DM Sayaka!
