Sauna for Tana!

Donation protected
OK, Bleeding Hearts. Our fearless leader, Tana, has poured her sweat and love and time into all of us for a long time. It's time we pour some of that back. 

One of Tana's favorite ways to decompress is through steam bathing. Let's help make this one of the many comforts and joys of the BHKC experience--our very own cedar sauna.  

We'd like to get her this one. It has room for four, uses lava rocks for steam, and the barrel shape allows water to condense above and move back down the sides, also cycling the hot air back down into the lower level (unlike box shapes, which trap hot air in the upper corners). It will live in the shed, which is now in the back of the parking lot, but we have plans for indoor access in the future. 


A number of different studies demonstrate benefits of sauna use for athletes, including increased cardiovascular performance, reduced muscle soreness and fatigue, and minor detoxification, to name a few (you can check out a longer list here  ). 

After the countless dollars Tana has managed to wrangle through this generous, amazing community to give to others, let's share some of that support with her and give her something she will really, really love. The best part? You'll get to use it, too! 

We're aiming to raise the funds by the end of the month so we can get this baby up and running by Galentine's Day.  <3
