Cost of Retreat Package does not include hotel stay.
An inclusive and affirming retreat for all women in historic, progressive, downtown Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Start your day with mindful reflection guided by Coach Liz, processing through movement (accessible yoga taught by Cassandra) and then enjoy a lovely group lunch with retreat guests. You are free to enjoy an afternoon of activities with the group with options for continued mindfulness, time in nature, shopping, spa and salon visits, crafts and more or take some space to enjoy the 300+ boutiques, cafes, galleries, markets, etc. of walkable Lancaster City. Our group reconvenes for dinner together to share the adventures of our day.
We check-in to the Lancaster Arts Hotel with our welcome gathering Thursday evening, 7 pm and our program continues through dinner Saturday evening. Guests are encouraged to book a room at the Lancaster Arts Hotel with our special group rate but are also welcome to commute from home or stay elseware. The retreat package includes retreat activites, group meals and transportation around the city. If you stay at our hotel, you do not need to worry about transportation or meals throughout the retreat but you are always welcome to step away and explore the lovely city on your own.
As a pre-retreat bonus, several of us will be checking-in a day early to the hotel on Wednesday, Oct. 7 to enjoy an extra spa day with our partner DRIFT Spa on Thursday before the retreat begins.
At CLK Events, we create transformational experiences that blend mindset work, yoga, and holistic healing to restore balance, spark connection, and inspire growth.
Founded by Cassandra Storm, Liz Tattersall, and Kristy Snow, we bring together decades of expertise in trauma-informed yoga, transformational coaching, wellness practices and community leadership to help individuals and groups reduce stress, rediscover clarity, and awaken to their potential.
Our Mission
CLK Events is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to creating affirming, inclusive, and transformational wellness experiences rooted in feminine energy, healing, and connection. We design retreats, workshops, and community events that support emotional healing, personal growth, and authentic self-expression.
We create trauma-informed, LGBTQ+-affirming spaces where cisgender women, transgender women, TGNCNBI, non-binary people who identify with feminine energy, gender-diverse individuals, allies, and inclusive organizations are welcomed and celebrated. Our gatherings blend mind-body practices, spiritual healing, creative expression, and community connection to help participants feel safe, seen, and supported.
At CLK Events, we believe that true transformation happens when people come together in compassionate, supportive, and inclusive spaces. By gathering in feminine-centered community, we foster resilience, empowerment, healing, and belonging—for individuals and for the world we share.

Friday & Saturday Mornings Through Lunchtime
Info: Friday and Saturday unfold in the heart of Historic Downtown Lancaster City, where our boutique hotel sits just steps from hundreds of cafés, restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and hidden gems waiting to be discovered together.
Each morning begins the same way: with gentle mindset coaching to open your heart and clarify what you’re ready to release or receive, followed by accessible, nurturing yoga to help your body process and integrate that inner work. Chair yoga is always available; every body is welcome here.
From there, we wander into the city for leisurely lunches and curated dining experiences, savoring a variety of local flavors.

Friday Afternoon Adventure Options & Dinner
Info: Throughout our days, we offer guided experiences and optional adventures, from visiting the oldest continuously operating farmers market in the country to hands-on creative workshops. Each year brings something new: from planting living art to, in 2026, designing your own jewelry, a beautiful symbol of what you’re creating within yourself. Friday is our glow-up Girls-Night-Out dinner to a beautiful fine dining restaurant that is LGBTQ+ owned.
🕑: 02:00 PM - 09:00 PM
Saturday Afternoon Shopping & Girls Night In
Info: Saturday is our afternoon of shopping with legendary stylist Lindsey Taub. Saturday evening's finale is our beloved Girls’ Night In, where we gather at the hotel to create something beautiful together, this year crafting our own signature-scented spa products to take home as a reminder of your time here. We would love a fashion show from those who shopped and will close out the night with a supportive sharing circle. By the end of these days, something subtle and powerful has shifted. Friendships bloom. Walls soften. Women leave lighter, more connected, and carrying the magic of this sisterhood long after the retreat ends.
Sunday Morning Check-Out
Info: Our retreat officially ends Saturday evening but Sunday morning is always filled with big hugs and even bigger smiles as we say our goodbyes, checking out of our beautiful hotel and preparing our travels home.
