A one-day retreat to remember why we’re nostalgic for the past

Your invite to unplug & turn back time. No screens. Just fun.

 

This is a full-day nostalgic experience — from crafts, games, and creative projects to roller skating, themed swag, and all your meals included. A curated throwback to the carefree summers of the late ’90s, designed to make you laugh, relax, and feel like a kid again.

Sidewalk Sessions
Enjoy that excited morning chatter that couldn’t even wait for a kickstand—just bikes strewn across the driveway, jelly shoes on the porch, and friends waiting and ready to give you the scoop. It all starts before you even make it inside.

Craft Corner, Free Play, and Choreographed Numbers
A hands-on space for junk journaling, puffy paint, and friendship bracelets—messy, creative, and completely un-serious in the best way. As an added bonus - we'll add a little sleepover styled dance routine.

Roller Rink Night
We've got the rink all to ourselves for a private skate session — glow sticks in hand, music up, and full 90s energy. Expect backward laps, a questionable attempt at couples skate, and the kind of carefree chaos that only happens when it's just us.

"We need a return to analog living. Handwritten letters. Films in the cinema. Physical books. In-peson visits. Time spent outdoors. We were never meant to live our entire lives through a screen. No alogithm can replicate the weight of a book in your hands, the warmth of someone's voice without lag, or the way time slows when you're fully present. Memory feels different when it isn't curated for an audience. The most meaningful moments were never meant to be documented - they were mean to be lived." Vincent Phan
