2025 Boundless Retreat

The 2025 Boundless Retreat

The Boundless Retreat is a four-day, three-night intimate, kinky camping event held annually at a beautiful, secluded resort just a few hours North of San Francisco. The event brings together people and experiences from every corner of the kink world. Boundless strives to bring together those who are new and curious, as well as those with more experience, to share knowledge, connection, and enthusiasm.

Each and every Boundless event is organized and run by volunteers who are crucial to helping the Retreat run as smoothly as possible.

So, we are trying something new this year– we’re asking all attendees to be of service to this amazing community event by volunteering for 4 hours total during the Retreat. Volunteering is usually very simple— working at our Greeters station, checking COVID tests at the breakfast line, refilling snacks or safer sex supplies, selling ice, driving a shuttle car, etc.— and often does not take up the entire allotted time. Volunteering is a great way to meet other people and feel a stronger connection to the Retreat community you’re serving.

Attendees will select their volunteer roles and preferred shifts as we get closer to the event date.

If you do not wish to volunteer, we are providing a Volunteer Service Opt-Out (see below) that allows you to opt-out of the 4 hours of volunteering at the Retreat for $75.

Scholarship Admission:

If the Boundless Retreat is something that you’d love to do but is not something that fits within your budget, we are offering a limited number of Scholarship Admission tickets.

• Scholarship Admission: $150

This cost only provides for your admission to the event with the included volunteer service hours. The admission does not include the catered meal plan. If you wish to utilize the catered meals, you will need to separately purchase the Catered Meal Plan add-on ticket.

To apply for a scholarship, please read through the following page on our Scholarship Program and submit your application for review.

 Add-On Ticket Prices:

Catered Meal Plan (per person: $250)

We highly recommend adding-on the Catered Meal Plan which provides (8) delicious and healthy meals over the course of the event. Last year’s attendees raved over the catered meals and we are lucky to have the same caterer back this year. 

Please note that if you decline the Catered Meal Plan, you may bring your own food with the following limitations:

• You will need to provide your own food for the duration of the Retreat. You will not be able to opt-in to the catered meals at the event as the meal plan must be purchased in advance.
• If you choose to bring your own food, please note the venue does not allow open flames, hot plates, or heating devices to be used on the property or to be plugged into the venue’s power system.
• There will be food, such as smoothies, pizza, sandwiches, and salads, available for purchase at the Rainbow Bar, a service provided by the venue. You will need to bring cash to pay for food from the venue as the venue does not accept credit cards.
• You will have access to a microwave in the dining hall.
• Ice will be available for sale to participants before general meal times every day.

ADDITIONAL Volunteer OPPORTUNITIES

General Volunteer Opportunities

These roles include Standby Medical and Care & Conduct support, and coordinator-level roles for Classes, Hospitality, and Volunteers. Depending on their role and time commitment, these volunteers may receive a discount on their admission ticket and lodging.
