Help us reopen the Historic Gilroy Hot Springs Resort. A group of dedicated volunteers has been maintaining the site since it was closed 20 years ago. The mineral spring well is still actively producing mineral water from 95-106F and 1 cabin (with 4 rooms) has already been renovated. We’ve received permission to open the site once a few more improvements are completed.
The Goal
The Plan
Through our strategic planning process, the Conservancy has identified a budget of $95,000 to complete the first phase of our re-opening process.
In order to obtain the final approval from California State Parks to reopen, we commit to using our fundraising budget for the following tasks:
–Installation of new fire tank and hydrants, per code requirements–
–Installation of new soaking decks and tubs–
–Facility improvements for 20 campsites–
Please contribute whatever you are able. Donations of all sizes are greatly appreciated! All donors to this fundraiser will be given first priority to make reservations for soaking, camping and cabin rentals once we have a firm reopening date. Our current goal is summer 2021.
In addition to grant of first access, we are also offering the following services to our premium donors:
-$200 will receive 2 individual day access passes for soaking
-$400 will receive a weekend camping spot plus daily soaking up to 4 people
-$800 will receive a cabin rental or premium camping spot plus daily soaking up to 4 people
Please note premium donations carry reduced tax write-off value due to services exchanged. Soaking times may be limited by water flow, Covid 19 regulations and number of tubs built out at the time of your visit. We will do our best to accommodate you and ensure you get a good soak!
We are not accepting donations at this time but please check back next week when our GoFundMe site will be launched!
