Ever wonder what it actually feels like to spend a weekend at the Rockin’ Mom Retreat?

Here’s a glimpse into what it’s like to step away and recharge — just for YOU.

☀️ Mornings:

Wake up in a cozy room — solo or with friends — with no alarms, no kids’ feet digging into your back, no early wake-ups (unless you want to catch the sunrise or join a wellness activity). Grab your coffee, enjoy a real breakfast you didn’t have to make, and ease into your day.

 🎤 Inspiration, Insights & Connection:

Our sessions are built to encourage and uplift — with incredible speakers and small group connection time — plus helpful insights from the GLOBAL Medical Care and Research Roundtable, where you’ll hear updates and practical tips from leading Down syndrome experts.

🍽️ Meals You Don’t Have to Prep or Clean Up:

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner with great food, great conversation, and zero dishes.

🏆 The Amazing Race:

We think this will be a weekend highlight! Team up for a fun (and slightly competitive) adventure through the Gardens. Zoom around (safely!) on golf carts, tackle silly challenges, and make some of the best memories of your weekend — with plenty of photos to prove it.

💆‍♀️ Relax on Your Terms:

Spa time? Poolside lounging? White sand beach? Butterfly gardens? Quiet reading? A guilt-free nap? You choose.

🛍️ Exhibit Hall & Prizes:

Shop, explore, and connect with organizations and small businesses supporting the Down syndrome and disability communities — and don’t miss your chance to win amazing prizes in our annual auction and raffle!

🍷 Evenings:

Live music, optional activities, toes in the sand and a drink in your hand … or early bedtime in your plush resort room. You get to do you.

🛌 End the Day:

Climb into bed each night feeling connected, supported, and reminded you are not alone in this journey.

💛 It’s connection. It’s rest. It’s fun. It’s a weekend just for you — because you deserve this.
