We gave away a FREE weekend to Camp Get Away, and OCMAMMA Reader Brandee Ramirez won! Here is her blog about her weekend (scroll down for photos):
Well...where do I start? Camp Get Away was like no other thing I've ever experienced. It was a time to unwind, relax and drink some wine...but not too much since the altitude effects the outcome...hey cheaper right? I arrived to a beautiful scenic setting with a back drop of snow covered mountains, don't worry, I didn't need my snowboats, there wasn't snow where I was staying, it was actually around 70 degrees. There was a Mad Housewife Wine tasting the first night with lots of "get-to-know-you" activities. The second day was filled with a yummy breakfast, manicures, pedicures, yoga, facials, archery, photography lessons,round-tables and a cool networking table where I displayed my information and products.
Saturday evening was themed "70's". I did my best with what I had (I had a busy week of parent conferences prior to the get away,and no time to buy some fabulous get-up...I will next time, though as EVERYONE was dressed for the occasion!) The night was full of food, wine and lots of dancing. We had a hip hop instructor who brought the moves out of everyone (watch out JT) and a belly dance instructor that brought the sensual side out of everyone (watch out hubbies, boyfriends and significant others). After the dancing karaoke started and that was when I decided, let's save everyone from me and hit the hay. I was totally exhausted anyway.
The next morning I woke up, read, did some yoga and then hit the "mess hall" for the closing ceremonies. Camp Get Away gave away "prizes" (things campers donated). I donated some MILKBELLY hairclips, nuk holders and an OCBEBE onesie. It was the first item choosen...way to go OCMAMMA and MILKBELLY!!! They had an awards ceremony where they gave out 5 different awards, one being the SPIRIT Award...which I won. They said I had a constant smile on my face and always willing to help others....well how COULDN'T you have a constant smile when you are totally and utterly relaxed?
That was my weekend at Camp Get Away and I can't thank OCMAMMA, Arianne McHugh and CAMP GET AWAY, Patty Londre, Eliza and Company, enough for this amazing opportunity!
THANK YOU MUCHO!!!
