The total cost of the trip is $629 per person for a general ticket where you are sharing a queen/king bed, and $729 for a premium ticket where you will have your own mattress (this will be either a top queen bunk of a bunk bed OR a twin bed, there are 3 available). You will have the option to pay in full, or there will be a payment plan.

If you choose the payment plan, there will be a $229 non-refundable deposit ($329 for Premium) upon sign up, and then $100 per month for the next 4 months. The deposit will draft immediately, and you will receive a monthly invoice for the next 4 months. The first $100 invoice will be paid manually, and will allow permission for me to draft the remaining 3 payment of $100 each automatically.

Payment plan schedule:

• Sign up: $229 non-refundable deposit ($329 for Premium)
• 1 month later: $100 invoice paid manually 
• 2 months later: $100 invoice paid automatically
• 3 months later: $100 invoice paid automatically
• 4 months later: $100 invoice paid automatically

• 3 night stay in a Air BnB in San Diego CA.
• At LEAST 3 crafts with all supplies needed to make them. To keep the crafts affordable, some items at the event will be “BYOT” – Bring Your Own Tools, like glue gun and scissors.( I am toying with adding a “Paint & Sip” but I need to learn to paint first LOL!). Crafts will be cute and not super complicated. They will also be small enough to take home in your suitcase.
• Continental Breakfast each morning (Bagels, Muffins, Cereal, Crouissants, Hard Boiled Eggs, Fruit, Coffee, Tea, Juice).
• Tuesday Night: Light eating , Snacks, and S’mores. Amanda will provide options of nearby places for anyone that wants to go and get themselves a full meal.
• Wednesday Lunch: “Make your own Sandwich Lunch” for the pool. Lunch meat, condiments, chips, cookies, and a drink
• Wednesday Dinner: PJ’s, Projects, and Pizza/Paella night. I am still deciding on this but either way it will be inlcuded.
• Party Bus for 4 hours from Thrift Store to Thrift Store (and possibly Dollar Tree).
• Coffee, Tea, Snacks throughout trip. 1 water bottle per person per meal (8 total).
• CRAFTaway event T-shirt
• **SOME THINGS TO NOTE THAT ARE NOT INCLUDED: Airfare, Alcohol, Uber to/from airport, Mexican Dinner night out, snacks and drinks other than what I provide, Tattoo.

The deposit and retreat tickets are 100% NON-REFUNDABLE. There is a TON of planning and preparation that goes into these events, and the money collected for each ticket will be almost immediately spent on retreat expenses.

You are responsible for selling your ticket if you cannot attend for ANY reason at all, including emergencies. With that being said, Amanda will do absolutely anything possible to help you to sell your ticket, including but not limited to promoting the available ticket on her social medias, sending an email to her email list, and sending Telegram notifications. 

We truly do not want to see anyone lose their deposit/ticket cost, but refunds are strictly not an option.

There will be a survey questionnaire sent out in advance asking these type of questions. You will have available meal alternatives for things that you are allergic to so long as the information is provided on that survey in a timely manner.

The Air BnB is wheelchair accessible and there is a ground unit/bedroom, however, there is no wheelchair accessible shower.

Public transportation in San Diego is EXTREMELY efficient. The easiest way to get around is Uber or Lyft. I recommend downloading the app ahead of time, and setting up an account so that when you arrive in San Diego all you need to do is enter the address of the Air BnB and head to the Uber/Lyft pickup location of the airport. There is a designated spot that is clearly marked with signs, and you can also ask any airpot attendee where the Ride Share pick up location is. 

If you do not feel comfortable with using a ride share service, the airport will have a line of taxis that you can jump into at any time.

There are also options to take the bus/trolley, but learning that system, although cheaper, will be much more difficult. Please reach out to Amanda directly for info on the public transportation system if that is what you prefer.

On the way back to the airport at the end of the trip, I suggest finding someone with a similar flight time so that you can ride together and share the cost. Right in the Uber/Lyft app there is a “share cost” option, or you can always Venmo the other person your share. (This is an option when arriving as well, but you will need to coordinate with a friend before the trip to plan your arrival).

Check-in is anytime after 5 pm PST on Tuesday 10/07. I am working on figuring out if/where you can drop bags off if you arrive early, but you will not be able to get settled in until 5pm. 

Check-out is Friday 10/10 at 9:15 am. Anyone that is not checked out by then will be asked to assist with clean up and tear down of the event.

Amanda will provide more info on early/late bag holding when the event date gets closer.

I will make myself available until Monday to hang out in San Diego. After the event, the party will move down towards the beach. ALL meals/lodging/accommodations/entertainment etc. will all be each persons individual responsibility. 

Once the registration ends, I will be communicating with all attendees about who is extending their stay, and you will have the option to get a hotel/suite with a roomate(s) to share the cost. I will be providing several hotel options down by the beach, with different price ranges. 

The Air BnB has a very large driveway that can fit several cars, and there is plentiful street parking for free as well. No one will have a problem finding parking at all.
