VILLAGE SAUNA NEWSLETTER | VOL. 2
WHERE TO FIND US THIS WINTER
You’ve patiently waited, and we’re so pumped to announce that we’ll be setting up our sauna for the season next to Night Moves Bread & Lambs! Our sauna will be parked at these neighboring businesses at 695 Broadway South Portland, where customers can enjoy a view of the Fore River during their sessions and visit Night Moves and Lambs for delicious refreshments.
The permits have been approved, the licenses have been issued—regular operations will commence soon! And in the meantime…
SOFT LAUNCH DEC 14
We’re inviting friends, family, and villagers to join us Sunday, December 14th for our Soft Launch at Night Moves & Lambs. Come out to our sauna and enjoy a discounted session as a thank you for your support!
GRATITUDE FOR OUR PARTNERS
We feel lucky to partner with nearby business owners we look up to, who share our motivation of delivering high quality experiences to customers. Kerry from Night Moves and Wade from Lambs have been so supportive of Village Sauna, and we can’t wait to bring some heat to their beloved South Portland businesses this winter.
Simultaneously, we owe a big thank you to the folks at the City of South Portland—in Economic Development, Code Enforcement, Licensing, Planning, and more—for helping us get proper approval to operate. It means a lot when your city is enthusiastic about your business, and we don’t take this support for granted.
LOCAL COMMUNITIES WE LOVE
Caitlin & Kelsy from Two Maine Mermaids are hosting the Water Women Film Fest this Sunday, December 7th to fund their 6th annual Women Wave cold plunge. Tickets are sold out for all 3 of their shows (!) but you can still support their raffle (where you can win prizes sauna lovers will really love 👀).
EVENT RECAP: MARATHON RECOVERY
Village Sauna's first public pop-up event was incredible. We set up at Bug Light Park on a beautiful fall day, and it was so special seeing new faces and familiar friends gathering at the sauna. And we’re pleased to report that the ice water showers between sessions turned out to be an unexpected crowd favorite!
