Frequently Asked Questions


What is and where is the Club House?

The Club House is Val’s house in Madrona—and the address is provided in your event confirmation. Any meet up where a special location isn’t needed (or available) happens at the Club House.

How many people will be there?

Each Sunday has six guests, and you’ll be able to see how many spots are left when you sign up. If the class you want is full—definitely email us! If any one cancels we’ll holler at you — and it will help us learn more about demand for future offerings.

What happens when I sign up?

A week before the event, you’ll get a confirmation email with the location, timing, directions, what the car pool situation might be, and reminders of what to bring (if anything!). There’s probably other stuff we’re forgetting—but it will get figured out (or you can ask!).

What do the $80 dues include?

Camp dues pay for the instructor / activity, any materials, and your badge. Typically, your camp dues also cover some light refreshments—also cover parking fees (when necessary).

*OPTIONAL refreshments in the month’s event description are not included.

How do we get there?

Four Sundays are planned outside of the Club House— in Mt. Vernon, Shilshole Marina, Capitol Hill, and SODO. You’re welcome to drive yourself, otherwise carpools will organized based on sign ups. Troop Organizer Valerie will always be a carpool driver.

What’s the food situation?

Events at the Club House will always have refreshments—a lil cheese, or some lil sandwiches, or some nice lil treats, along with soft drinks and likely, a lil wine. You’re welcome to contribute snack or drinks too to make things extra festive.

Activities ‘off-site’ will often be snack-optional—check the details in the event description to confirm.

Who are the teachers?

The majority of the teachers for your 2025 activity roster are professionals—people who do these activities for a living, and their websites are linked in the event descriptions. If you have a skill to offer, or a teacher / activity to recommend—let us know at hey@secondsundies.com!

The class I want is full!?

Email us at hey@secondsundies.com and let us know. We’ll message you if a space opens up—and knowing what demand is like will help us iterate / expand the offerings next year.

Is there a cancelation policy?

Yes. Since we’re paying instructors—we need 6 people per class to keep the experience affordable. If you cancel 48 hours or less before a Sunday, and we CANNOT fill your spot in the pinch—we also can’t refund you. :(

Will this continue in 2026?

Maybe! Let’s see how this year goes! If YES— some badges that we look forward to earning next year could be things like archery, hiking, noodle pulling, various crafty crafts, automobile maintenance, darning sweaters, spoon whittling, oyster shucking, and more, and more, and on, and on. Send along fun ideas if you have them, too!
