Travel costs and logistics are up to each attendee AND, leading up to the retreat, we have pre-retreat zoom calls where we figure out carpools, ride shares, and whatnot. The retreat is all-inclusive once you arrive.

The closest airports are Newark, La Guardia, JFK and Albany. If you can catch a plane to the smaller Stewart or Westchester (HPN) airports, you'd be in luck too!

There is plenty of parking so if you are local, feel free to drive and park your car.

We strongly encourage you to purchase travel insurance with your trip to cover any last-minute needs to change like illness.
