FAQs
When is this retreat?
After sending out a survey and looking at what worked best for the most people, the weekend of July 23 – July 26, 2026 was chosen. That said, it is free to attend so you can come for 1 day, 5 days, part of what we do — or whatever you want. Some this year might come in a day earlier to catch the Guardians vs Twins game as well.
How much does it cost?
Nothing — unless we want to get together and split a shuttle/Uber/bus at some point. There is no ticket to buy. It is more of a group that enjoys beer and travel picking a city to hang out in for a weekend.
Is there a hotel room block?
Yes! We have a block at The Westin Cleveland Downtown - 777 Saint Clair Avenue NE, Cleveland, OH, 44114. You're also free to stay wherever works best for you.
