Girls Retreat Weekend · October 16–18, 2026 · Boise, ID Area. Please plan for your own housing, meals, and event tickets.
Friday
Meet at 7:30 PM. The corn maze opens at 8 PM.
When the sun goes down, Shindig Farms transforms into a twisting, fog-filled maze packed with live actors, eerie soundscapes, and unexpected scares around every corner. This isn’t your average haunted attraction; it’s an immersive experience built for teens and adults who love a good scare.
Food trucks available.
Price: $25
Saturday
Meet-up at 10 AM
Meet-up in the Home Depot parking lot at 10 AM. We will carpool/caravan to Garden Valley. Our 1-hour drive through mountain roads will take us to the home of Tonia Atwood, where we will stop for an outdoor picnic lunch, pickleball, and relaxing by the river. A lunch of baked potatoes and chili will be provided. Following lunch, we will travel to the hot springs pool, which is approximately 10 minutes from Tonia’s home.
Ages 12–59: $15 Ages 60+: $10
Water bottles are permitted in the pool area, but no other outside drinks or snacks are allowed. The resort offers drink and snack service poolside for an additional cost.
You are free to stay at the pool as long as you would like (or when your driver says it is time to go)! We will reconvene for dinner.
Lori Larsen’s home at 6 PM
Pulled pork sandwiches and paper products will be provided. Guests should plan to provide a side dish or a dessert. If you are local, please try to provide a nicer side dish (potato casserole, baked beans, etc.) or a warm dessert (cobbler, etc.) and leave the easier, pick-up-at-the-market side dishes for those who are traveling.
We will be watching the 1995 classic, Now and Then: Four childhood friends gather together to prepare for the birth of Chrissy’s baby. They wonder how the girls they were at age 12 could have become the women they are now. Watch the trailer on IMDb.
Bring your own camp chairs and dress warmly, with plenty of blankets. We will have a few fires going to help keep us warm.
In case of inclement weather, we will redirect to an indoor venue in Meridian.
Sunday

After the RSVP window has closed, we will reach out with a small food assignment for you to contribute.
