We are excited to announce our first ever Women Only Weekend (WOW) April 26 to April 28, 2024, at the Quality Inn in Radford, Virginia!

This event is designed to create a space for women in our community to bond, share experiences, and support each other in a fun and relaxing environment. We believe that this weekend will be a fantastic opportunity to strengthen our community, make new friends, and create lasting memories.

We are thrilled to have you join us for a rejuvenating and unscripted weekend retreat where you can unwind, embrace comfort, and focus on self-care. Please note that this event is a self-supported getaway. Each participant will be responsible for their own expenses, including making and paying for their own reservations, meals, and personal needs. This approach will allow each of us to tailor the weekend to our own preferences and budgets.

We have planned some fun activities to keep you entertained. There will be games, access to the pool (don’t forget your swimsuit!), and a relaxing patio area where you can set up your outdoor chairs.

In addition, we will have a clothing and junk swap. Bring any clothes you no longer wear or items you’re ready to part with. It’s a great opportunity to declutter and refresh your wardrobe. Want to do ‘girly’ things? Feel free to bring nail polish, makeup, or anything else you’d like to share.

Whether you choose to engage in crafting, pamper yourselves with manicures or makeup, or simply relax by the pool or on the patio, the choice is entirely yours. This weekend is all about YOU. Make it as relaxing or adventurous as you desire.
