Date & Time
Tuesday, September 3-Thursday, September 5, 2024
Start time: 11:30am (begin with lunch)
End time: 7:45pm (wrap up after dinner)
Space is limited at the ranch, so this gathering will be for JEI alumni only. If you’re planning to travel to CA with your family, nearby lodging options are listed below for your consideration.
Cost
Alumni are responsible for covering travel and lodging expenses. JEI will cover all facility fees and food/catering. JEI will do its best to provide stipends to all alumni who request support (up to $250 for lodging and up to $250 for travel). Email Maddy Clark (maddy@justeconomyinstitute.org) to request a stipend.
Staying at the ranch
Please contact Rhiannon Blankenship at lodging@paicinesranch.com to book your lodging.
Here is the pricing sheet for Paicines Ranch lodging. All JEI alumni will receive a 10% discount. Please note some cottages have a flat rate for the entire house. If you’d like to book a cottage to share with other alumni, please select one person to coordinate accommodations for the whole cottage. We will leave it up to you to arrange how to split the cost.
The ranch has 60 beds (42 rooms). We’d love to get as many alumni onsite as possible, so please coordinate with roommates & housemates. You are welcome to bring tents to camp out, air mattresses to stay in the common living areas or sleep on the couches in some of the cottages.
Check out photos and descriptions of the Rooms & Cottages, and use this interactive map of the Ranch Facilities to see the lay of the land.
