Special THANKS
As 2024 comes to an end, we want to recognize everyone. You all make these events as great as they are.
First, we thank Roger, the manager, Ibrahim, and Freud at cash. We also appreciate Rafi for taking care of you at the bar. We thank the rest of the Spa Excess staff for allowing us to have our events here.
Next, thanks to our media sponsor, Bear World Magazine. A special mention goes out to those who donated the many prizes we gave away this year. These included tickets to bear events around the world, clothing, autographed books, accessories, gift certificates, and much more.
Many thanks to our friends Marco and Steve, from Vida Spa & Wellbeing, for those relaxing massages.
A big thank you goes out to Chuck Spady, from OCD-Studios, for graphics and coupons. This year, we commissioned Brazilian Marco ByM to revamp our posters.
A special thanks goes out to my right-hand man, Dan Charette. He has always been there to help. If Eric is not able to be present, Dan makes sure the event goes on as planned. Ironically, December 15th is his birthday. Come down and celebrate it with us. Get a slice of cake and look for Eric to sign the card.
We want to thank you for coming to Spa Excess. Thank you for attending Bears in Excess and/or Chubs at the Tubs. Without you, there wouldn’t be either event.
Marco and Steve will be back!
Our friends Marco Antonio Garcia and Steve Catano, from Vida Spa & Wellbeing (facebook.com/MarcoGarciaEspecialistaFIN), will once again be there. They will help relax you, unwind you, and rejuvenate you with a 10-minute chair massage. This is available for just $10!
About our event
Get there before 10:30 a.m. (YES THAT EARLY) to snag a room. If you’re late, you’ll be given a locker and added to a waiting list. The fun officially starts at 1 p.m. and it runs till 6 p.m. There are 50% off locker coupons available. You can download it here: https://bit.ly/46cctXX
When you arrive, you’ll be greeted with a choice: a private room or a secure locker. After collecting your keys and a towel, you can discover the facilities.

If you’d like someone to show you around, please ask for Eric. We’ll gladly give you an all-access tour.
