Cheryl

Cheryl loves running... especially up a hill. She will be hosting a Northwest Trail Runners field trip trail run / hike on Sunday.

Adam

Who knows everything there is to know about mushrooms? Adam does! He will share his knowledge with a presentation on this fascinating type of fungi.

Sonia

(Nicole's little sis)

Sweet by day, sassy by night, Sonia will help us create solar eclipse pinhole viewers, make art prints using the sun's rays, and other sun-based crafts. Then she'll loosen us up in her Shake Your Buti yoga class.

Beverly

(Nicole's mom)

She's rescued frogs, turtles, and Nicole's prom dress. Part naturer, part nurturer, she's sewing up a little something sweet for all of us, plus a few other surprises.

Stuart

Able to solve any problem, other than those of his own making, Stuart can often be found cooking in the kitchen with a whisky in hand or defending his home from invasive rodents. He'll mix us some tasty cocktails, keep the beer coming, and deliver a spread of grilled indigenous Texas sausages to fortify us for the totality.

Cameron

Our resident cheerleader and personal travel agent, she'll make sure we're entertained, on schedule, and always #lookingcute.

Tam

The international man of mystery, he's got some tricks up his sleeve. Plan to be amazed.

Randie

When Randie's not playing the guitar he's playing the ukulele! He'll be bringing his smaller sidekick to lead us in some songs around the campfire.

Liz

A yoga practitioner, Liz will lead a morning sun salutation yoga class in the outdoor pavilion.

Joerg

Joerg will teach us Eclipse 101 and take us on a journey through space during his astronomy presentation.

Patrick

A little guitar and a lot of jokes, Patrick will be entertaining us throughout the party and emceeing the Short Film Fest.

Siena, Alana, Catalina

(Nicole's nieces)

Running, performing, artistry, and more, these sisters will be using their various talents to liven up the party.

Kristi

She knows the way to Nicole's heart is through cookies. And that Nicole knows nothing about fizzy drinks.

Damon

Do you know the muffin man?

Emily

Shes's always up to something! Emily will be adding some flair to keep us in the party spirit.

Carly

Carly uses the language of tarot to help people connect, heal, and grow. She will be offering tarot card readings to us.

Jessica

Jessica helps stressed souls find inner peace. She will lead a sound bath meditation session utilizing singing bowls, gongs, and other healing instruments to promote calm and relaxation.

Allyson and Christo

One of Austin's true honky tonk love stories, Allyson and Christo met on the dance floor and soon married down at city hall. Using their 25 years of combined dance experience they will teach us the Texas Two Step and help us dance the night away.

Shannon and Nathan

Shannon and Nathan thoughtfully built The Retreat Ranch from the ground up, creating a lovely space to connect with nature, friends, and yourself. When Nicole stepped onto the ranch and met Shannon and Nathan she immediately knew this was the spot for her friends and family to gather to experience the eclipse.

The sun

At 4.6 billion years old and 92.96 million miles away - the sun will be the star (literally) of the show! On April 8th at around 1:30pm Texas time the sun will hide behind the moon to remind us just how powerful it is and how small we are.

Let us know if you can make it!
