Here are just a few things you should know about registration.
fees and form of payment
Pre-registration is required. Please do so by July 2nd.
Postmark your payment by June 15th and pay just $40 for each day – a savings of $10 per day.
After June 15th, the daily fee is $50.
If attending all 4 days:
$160 postmarked by June 15th
$200 postmarked June 16th – July 2nd
Please see payment instructions as well as our cancellation policy below.
The daily event fee includes continental breakfast items and healthy, catered food for lunch and dinner with vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free options. (No food served on the 11th or dinner on the 15th, however.) The fee also includes all sittings, discussions, and activities, except Saniel’s workshop — there’s an additional fee for that. You are welcome to camp outdoors for no additional charge, or stay in a hotel or rental house nearby. Practitioners’ spouses and children above the age of 14 are welcome!

newcomer recommendations
The Sacred Summer Celebration is intended for practitioners with previous experience with Waking Down in Mutuality. If you are a newcomer, we’d recommend one of the following: five sessions by phone with a Waking Down teacher, attending at least five Waking Down sittings in person, or completing this introductory online course from the Institute of Awakened Mutuality. If you have questions, please contact Amy at registrar@sacred-celebration.com or 678-662-5156.

We’ll either email you a consent form after you register, or once you arrive. For those of you who are familiar with the Transfiguration and Transformation Retreats, our consent form will be very similar.
