Yes, you can bring any kind of camp you'd like, or camp in your vehicle. Indicate which camp you're planning to bring when you checkout to buy your ticket so that we know how much area you will need.

Reach out to us if you cannot bring your own camp, or your own compound bow, and we will help in any way we can.

Yes you can choose your days. Reach out to Tana and she can give you a discounted rate.

This is an event for brand new beginners to advanced. It is for ALL outdoor women ages 16+ who desire to learn and be a part of this event. Check out the workshops and instructors! There is something to learn for everyone, and this is a great place to find unity, connect, and learn from each other as we are all on the same playing field regardless.

We will provide all of the guns, ammo, and traditional bows. The one weapon that would be nice to bring is your own compound bow if you are doing that class. If you don’t have your own, let us know!

“Strength” is a relative term. Your mindset is the most powerful tool. You do not have to be the strongest, baddest, fastest person and at your absolute best to do this. Anyone can do it and it won't be physically demanding.

We have had all ages and stages here! Everyone is welcome as long as you feel you are capable to camp for up to 5 nights.

Yes! You can hike, explore, relax, and we will have some camp games set up as well along with campfires and music at night.

A few ideas would be swimming, fishing, hiking, volleyball, fire, socializing, camp games, etc. There is a hot springs 1 hour away.

A $500 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your spot. If for any reason there is an emergency or someone cannot make a retreat, your deposit can be applied to a future retreat, but this must be arranged with Tana.

We understand that life happens and there may be reasons you have to cancel. You can receive a refund aside from the $500 deposit. It costs a lot to secure instructors and buy supplies for each workshop so we need ample time to know our numbers 1 month before everyone arrives.

The full payment is due no later than June 1, 2025. This can be paid throughout the year in installments, or all at once. Reach out to Tana if you need to set up payments.

Yes, we will, Just let us know beforehand so we can plan your meals, and we will also have a paramedic and wilderness first responder on staff all week.

For your safety, especially with shooting and handling firearms, this is a no alcohol event, and nobody can bring their own alcohol.

With the amount of workshops we have arranged, we are planning on selling 60 tickets. We trust the right women will come to this event! This number may changed as it gets closer based on how workshops are filling, and how we feel we can give you the best experience.
