A message from Jim Root, President & CEO

This past Monday, March 19th was the anniversary of the re-opened Glen Ivy in 1977 and by acclimation is the same date in 1860 when we welcomed our very first guest, thus Glen Ivy’s 152nd anniversary! Since March 19, 1977 and through March 18, 2012 Glen Ivy has welcomed almost 3.4 million guests and for countless generations even before 1860, Glen Ivy has welcomed folks to take the waters and find a personal renewal that comes from being in this special place. Today we are the stewards of the history and traditions of Glen Ivy and every day we are continuing to add to the richness and fullness of the story and experiences that we share with our guests and which all together, make Glen Ivy such an extraordinary destination.

We’re proud to continue offering you a day filled with meaningful, memorable and enjoyable experiences, and we’re grateful for your support and engagement as we strive to continue improving these experiences for you. We’ve shared our newly completed Pavilion earlier this year and currently our front entrance is undergoing a complete renovation, while our Bath House receives updates as well. We are always working on ways to enhance your Glen Ivy Experience and hope you delight in discovering something new each time you visit.

Thank you for your love of Glen Ivy. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Happy Birthday Glen Ivy Hot Springs!

-Jim Root, President & CEO

We kicked off the first week of our 4th Annual March MUDness contest with a BANG! Once again our guests joined us in Club Mud and showed us just how creative they could be in the mud. While it was hard to choose a winner (and we know that it isn’t going to get any easier), we are excited to announce our first weekly winner of the month – Vincent! He crafted a mud eye patch, mustache and hook then struck his fiercest pirate pose. Congratulations Vincent and we hope you enjoy your prize, TWO Hot Springs Admissions!

In case you weren’t able to make it to the Hot Springs this week, or if you’re at home planning your uber-creative mud photo, have no fear! We will be in Club Mud Monday – Friday from 1:00 – 1:30 pm waiting to snap your picture until March 30. We still have more Hot Springs Admission passes to give away to our weekly winners and TWO 50 minute Swedish Massages to award our grand prize winner!

Our camera is ready. Are you?
