"Spalidays" Open House and Spa Talk Luncheon presented by the Cascade Spa and Salon at Mill Falls Wednesday, December 1 (1X)

MEREDITH — Hundreds of women are expected to enjoy an evening of shopping and self-pampering at the 6th Annual "Spalidays" Open House presented by Cascade Spa and Salon at Mill Falls from 5 — 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, December 1.

Each year the Winnipesaukee Ballroom at Church Landing is transformed into a shopper’s paradise. Guests have the opportunity to sample and buy products sold exclusively at the Cascade Spa and indulge in a mini hand and chair massage, make-up application, and complimentary hors d’ oeuvres prepared by the Lakehouse Grille. Each visitor will walk away with a goodie bag and, on this night only, save 20% off Holiday Gift Cards.

Record attendance at the event last year prompted Cascade Spa to expand the venue space in 2010 and also offer valet parking to accommodate the increasing number of spa-goers. "Spalidays" success has also led to the addition of a special Spa-Talk Luncheon at noon on Thursday, December 2.

Cord Coen, founder of ZENTS therapeutic body care & sophisticated fragrance will share his amazing story of survival and inspiration. A life-changing car accident was the catalyst that fueled Coen's desire to heal and spread beauty throughout the world. His journey took him to India where he experienced, first-hand, the amazing healing powers of essential oils, herbs, and ayurvedic massage. ZENTS has gained the attention of the most elite boutiques and spas throughout the country and their products have found their way into the hands of the world's hottest celebrities. In the Lakes Region area, ZENTS products are sold exclusively at the Cascade Spa.

Tickets to Coen's presentation, which includes lunch catered by the Lakehouse Grille, are $15 per person. Seating is limited. Call 677-8620 to reserve a ticket.

Spa goers are encouraged to consider a "Spalidays" Lake Escape Package overnight accommodations and $10 off each Luncheon ticket. Packages start at $29.50 per person for Mill Falls and $49.50 per person for Church Landing, both based on double occupancy.
