Many women LOVE the gift of a day at Glen Ivy Spa, trust us, we hear how much all the time! But Wait! The other thing we have noted is what a special and different experience a spa day can be when shared with someone you love. So this year we encourage you to take that extra step and share the experience.

Wondering what two people can do together at the Spa? The real question is, what can’t you do?

My elevating moment of the day was seeing how much fun everyone was having with their friends and family despite the rainy weather. Glen Ivy is proud to be a part of such a positive and spirited community!

Throughout the day I collected spa goer forms to raffle off two admission passes to the Hot Springs and passes to The Grotto at Glen Ivy Day Spa, Valencia. Congratulations to our winners: Nicole, Jean, Irene and Stella! We’ll see you at the spa!

This Saturday I’m going to pack up paradise and Hit the Trail! The City of Santa Clarita is hosting a community bike ride and rally to celebrate healthy lifestyles, which is what we’re all about at Glen Ivy. The event is free to anyone interested and no registration is needed – just show up at one of the three starting locations and be ready to Hit the Trail at 9:30 a.m.! The escorted leisurely bike rides from all three routes will end at Bridgeport Park where riders will enjoy free lunch and plenty of fun for the whole family!

If you’re in the area, I hope that you’ll stop by the Glen Ivy booth between 9 and 2 p.m. to say hello and enter our spa-goer raffle for fabulous Glen Ivy prizes!

I’ll be sure to take some pictures at the event and post next week.

See you there!
