Accommodation: The Sea to Sky Retreat Centre has buildings for dining, meeting, and sleeping. Most inside accommodation is in shared double occupancy. Rooms will be assigned in advance. In shared rooms, people will be housed with others with similar gender requests for housing. There will be an opportunity to indicate a preference for sharing a room with another participant should you be attending with a friend or partner. Given the complexity of creating a safe and welcoming space for people’s diverse needs, we ask for your understanding and flexibility on room allocation.
On-Site Accessibility: Please note, there are limits to the Retreat Centre’s infrastructure: there are no fully accessible washrooms, and the terrain includes uneven rock and dirt pathways, hills, and stairs. The location is unsuited to a standard wheelchair. Please let us know if you think these limits to accessibility will impact you, or if you have accessibility needs related to standing, walking or climbing stairs so that we can work together to assess and strategize.
Special Needs: There will be an opportunity to specify any special needs including medically acute food allergies as well as mobility issues. We may not be able to meet everyone’s preferences but we will do our best to accommodate needs and make the retreat as safe and accessible as possible. We encourage you to please reflect on the difference between needs and preferences for your stay as you make your request, as this allows us to more easefully accommodate all retreatants.
COVID-19: Please inform the retreat manager if you become ill in the week prior to the retreat. Full refunds will be offered to those who do not attend due to illness.
