On Monday, September 10, at 6 PM, Shoji Retreats will host our Fairview Business Association and allow us to experience deep relaxation! It is an outdoor Japanese style hot tub retreat. We will get to see the private hot tub areas, the sauna and cold plunge and why it is so popular for individuals, couples and groups up to 40 people. They say, "Bathe to cleanse the body, soak to cleanse the soul," and we'll find out why.
So bring your bathing suit and towel if you want to get the full experience.
Carpooling is a must as the road in is narrow and small parking area. Get with your fellow FBA members at 5:30 at the Ingles parking lot.
Bring a side snack as usual and plenty of business cards to share.
6-6:45 Business Meeting and "What's New Minute" telling what the latest is in your business.
6:45-7:00 Shoji tour
7 pm to 8 Networking or Spa partaking This is what Shoji Administration had to say: "Here are some details to share with those attending:
Since we are closing the spa to normal business, there is sufficient parking at the spa (that's 98 Avondale Heights Rd) for approximately 10 vehicles. There is additional overflow parking at Roberta's house (that's 90 Avondale Heights Rd) which is just above the spa on the left; we will have a sign there & someone stationed there to help flag folks down when the spa parking lot is full. So we should have sufficient parking but car pooling is strongly encouraged!
Please remind folks to bring a bathing suit, towel, flip flops and possibly a robe or cover-up if they want to use the hot tubs, cold plunge and sauna. We will have 3 hot tubs open for folks to enjoy from about 7:30 until 9 pm. In order to allow staff to get things cleaned up and ready for business the next morning, we will have to ask that people leave at 9 pm.
We will supply some bottled water, sodas & a bit of extra wine along with some light snacks. If the weather is nice, we will set up outside on the spa deck; if it's too chilly, windy or looks like rain, we'll rearrange our treatment room area & set up inside the spa building."
