8/6 UPDATE:
I hope you guys are as excited as I am about our Summer Retreat! We are just about a month away, and I already know that the moment you step on the Palm Springs luxury property, you will be in a totally different state-of-mind. I have no doubts about that. Not just that, but you're going to really love this retreat because we are going to take it to the next level...more details about that VERY, VERY SOON! Yep, Yep, it's Summer Retreat 2012 baby! And it's going to be a very unforgettable weekend! (or forgettable, depending on how much you drink) ;)
As for your Bed Assignments & Carpool, I went ahead and set up a Bed Assignment Spreadsheet and a Carpool Spreadsheet for you...
BED ASSIGNMENTS: I've assigned your beds as best as I could according to your requests. Bed Assignment Spreadsheet is Viewable Only, so if you have a different preference from what you're currently assigned to, please e-mail me at [masked] with your Request, and I'll do my best to better accommodate you.

CARPOOL: Please coordinate with each other using the Carpool Spreadsheet below to carpool with each other to Palm Springs. The Carpool Spreadsheet is Editable/Viewable by Anyone. Click on the Carpool Spreadsheet below and enter all your info in the appropriate columns. It's pretty self-explanatory.

our very own private lake!!!
This really is the BEST of the BEST that Palm Springs has to offer!

As you've requested, we will be staying here from
◊ Friday Sept 14 3pm - Sunday Sept 16 11am ◊

Thank you David for organizing the awesome retreat & thank you Brian for cooking all weekend nonstop. Thank you Fei for the best lamb kabob. I had an unforgettable weekend - esp those who went skinny dipping in the lake. ;)
September 16
I'm able to free up my schedule, so I'm coming tonight from Irvine, Orange County. Carpool anyone? Please give me a call at [masked]
September 14
Does anyone have a Karaoke machine they can bring? we have a chill room with a large TV and a Theater room that we can plug it into... fun activity after some drinking :)
September 14
I really need to sell my spot if anyone knows someone who'd be interested. Please contact me about it. Thank you
September 14
Btw, you don't need to bring towels. They have plenty of bath towels there for you.
September 14
anyone planning to leave early on sun so i can catch a ride back? i live in chino.
September 13
Hey Wendy, Steven, Minty let's carpool together. I can't open the spreadsheet can you guy txt. me I need a ride. [masked] I live in Monterey Park.
September 13
Hi, just wondering if there's still room for me and a gf? Let me know if you guys are still looking for someone to take your spot :)
September 8
Hey guys/gals, I'm not sure if I can make it, if anyone else is interested in going PM me. I'm willing to sell my ticket for $100 cash now and you'll get deposit back ($50), so it'll only cost you $50 for a bed spot!!!!!!
September 3
Hey david. I was still wondering which rooms/beds are still available to choose from. Thanks
August 6
Hi Jorge!!! I'm sorry i haven't gotten back to you. I've been busy with work and my place. I'll make a deposit today, a financial one. See you soon.
July 31
David, I thought I saw something on this before, but I can't seem to find it. Just to summarize, the price includes a bed to sleep on for 2 nights (not a floor or sofa), and for the duration of our stay, food/alcohol/parking? Or do we need to chip in extra for food/booze or bring our own?
July 31
Miguel! by any chance, did you ever get my email reply to your request??? let me know... thanks! =)
July 30
You can pick which room you want, and I'll let you know if they are available... Sign up Tang! We only have a few spots left.
July 29
New to this group (and LA) but saw this and it looks sick. Quick question, how are the rooms being assigned?
July 29
as for how many spots are available, that info is right underneath where it says how many people are attending this event.
June 1
Lisa: yep, we still have 13 spots available if you would like to join us. Just RSVP and make payment.
William: thanks for responding to Lisa for me and thanks for your suggestion. for RSVP though, it's easier for me to manage my email communications by keeping everyone who RSVP'd and is interested in this event by keeping them on the Waiting List. If I moved them to Not Attending, I would mix them with people who are not interested, and wouldn't be able to contact them again about the event.
June 1
Lisa K: there are still 13 spots open :)
David: Just a thought, it may be a good idea to move people on the wait list to Not attending, so people who would like to sign up can see clearly there are still spots open and would not get confused :)
May 31
Byron: glad you're coming out! yep yep, our Summer Retreat is GOING DOWN EVEN CRAZIER THAN BIG BEAR X 10 :D
Andrew: if you want, you can camp by the firepit that's next to our Oasis with waterfall and right next to our Private Lake... :)
May 25
Just locked down the Desert Ridge Estate for Sept 14-16, so it's official! Gonna be an awesome retreat! :)
May 18, 2012
When you change your RSVP to YES, you will be taken to the next page where you can make your PayPal payment.
May 17, 2012
David, I don't see a paypal option for this. Is anyone else having this problem? Could be my computer.
May 17, 2012
Bedroom choices will go to everyone who RSVP & make payment early....just add in your RSVP Comment which bedroom you prefer or email me.
May 17, 2012
Again, if you can make your payment now, please do so to help us lock in our dates Sept 14-16. I need to put in a deposit to lock in those dates, and we need about 5-6 sign-ups to lock it in. There's a risk we may lose the dates if we don't put in our security deposit soon. The person I spoke to said that there are 2-3 calls about those dates already. It's only $120 + $50 refundable deposit, which you'll get back. It's really a great deal you can't get anywhere for everything that's included!
May 17, 2012
hey everyone, if you can make payment right now, please do so. We need a few payments so I can put in the security deposit to lock in our dates Sept 14-16...thanks :)
May 17, 2012
thanks for your votes everyone! we're moving forward with Friday 3pm check-in and Sunday 11am check-out
May 16, 2012
Hey Andrew.. I'm just gonna do 1 event, that's enough for me. You're welcome to host 1 tho if u want...
Btw, if anyone hasn't voted yet, be sure to vote for the PRICE & DATES you prefer:

Bro. You're gonna outdo Big Bear! Both are awesome. I'm for the September, too. But, is there a chance we can do Bellagio in July, as well? One in July and One in September, por favor? Might be expensive, but'll work some overtime to make this. This is probably still a cheaper alternative to Vegas anyways. More bargain for a couple of nights stay at a luxurious home than a pricy, crowdy hotel suite.
May 15, 2012
The next available date to book Desert Ridge is in mid-September. For Bellagio, we can book in either in July and August. Which would you guys prefer? Desert Ridge in September or Bellagio in July/August? Please comment and give me your feedback
