The Spa and Sauna Company, spa manufacturer Sundance Spas, and the charity Wish for Our Heroes recently teamed up to award a local veteran a FREE Sundance Spa as a small thank you for her military service.
This is the third time since 2018 that the three organizations have worked together to award a local Nevada veteran a free hot tub.
“We’re definitely grateful, for sure,” said Rose Kemp, of Reno, about the donation to her, her husband and their two daughters.
As an avid runner, Rose is excited for the relief from aches and pains, and the family time, that the new Hamilton 780 hot tub will provide.
Rose happens to be part of a military couple, as she and her husband Dennis Kemp are both long-time members of the Nevada National Guard, and both have been deployed overseas. They met due to their involvement in the military after being introduced by friends. As members of the Active-Duty Guard, both she or her husband could be called up at any time to serve. Additionally, they both hold full-time positions working for the military. Rose works in Human Resources with the Active-Duty National Guard, while Dennis works in the Central Issue Facility, which issues clothing for everyone in the military in the entire state.
“As dual Military our schedules get very hectic and having the hot tub would help us spend time quality together with our two daughters,” Rose said in her application.
Delivery Day
On the day of the delivery, Rose and Dennis were so thankful for the donation.
Their backyard patio had a space that looked like it was made for their new Sundance Hamilton 780 Spa, once they moved their self-standing hammock out of the way.
“We’re just really grateful and excited,” Rose said.
About the Wish for Our Heroes Program
Wish for Our Heroes is “a national 501(c)(3), dedicated to providing resources to the “average” active-duty military member, in order to make their deployments a little easier, and to improve the quality of their family lives while home or during deployment,” according to their website.
Together Sundance Spas, Wish for Our Heroes and Sundance Spa dealers around the country will have donated hot tubs to 73 veterans nationwide by the end of this year, said Ariel Najera, Channel Marketing Manager for Sundance Spas. The collaborative program, Hot Tubs for Heroes, was started in 2016. The organizations intend to continue donating hot tubs to veterans.
Rose is one of the 19 veterans and active military members selected in 2020 to receive a free Hot Tub, although most of those hot tub deliveries were pushed out until 2021. Recipients for the 2021 calendar year have not yet been selected.
This is the third spa donation in Nevada. All of these spa donations were through The Spa and Sauna Company.
About Our Recipient
Rose, now 37, joined the Nevada National Guard with her best friend in 2002, shortly after graduating high school. She said they signed up with the intent to take advantage of the GI Bill educational benefit. She is currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, in addition to working full-time.
Rose currently serves in a supervisory human resources role, managing the administrative paperwork for over 800 soldiers. Rose dreams of joining the Washoe County School District as an Elementary School teacher, after she retires the military, in about 6 years. At that time, she will have served in the National Guard for 20 years.
In 2004, Rose was deployed to Iraq, where she served as a Motor Transport Operator, assisting with transporting supply and equipment to numerous bases in Iraq. Later in her deployment, she was assigned as a Gun Truck Operator, her mission being to provide convoy security to numerous units convoying across Kuwait and Iraq.
“To this day my deployment to Iraq has been the most challenging, but most rewarding time of my military career. During my deployment it made me value the meaning of teamwork, hard work, comradery and made me value life more than I ever had before. My deployment will always be a momentous time in my life in which I was able to meet some of the best Soldiers and leaders whom to this day consider as my brothers and sisters in arms.”
Among those brothers and sisters in arms are The Spa and Sauna Company’s 1st Wish for our Heroes recipient, Daniel Rogers, and our 2nd Wish for our Heroes recipient, Kevin Vogt. She happens to know both of them. While they weren’t deployed together, she shares a Battalion with Kevin Vogt and works in the same office building, but not department, as Daniel Rogers. Read more about those donations here and here.
Dennis also served active duty overseas, in Afghanistan, with the Military Police in 2010 and 2011.
What Participating in This Program Means to The Spa and Sauna Company
As for The Spa and Sauna Company team, Wish for our Heroes delivery day has become one of our favorite days when we can see how hot tubs really change people’s lives.
“We, at The Spa and Sauna Company, are honored to fulfill this hot tub donation, in conjunction with Sundance Spas and Wish for Our Heroes,” said Spa and Sauna Co. Owner Scott Clark. “We are incredibly grateful to Roseanne and Dennis for their Service to our country. We wish Roseanne and her family years of enjoyment, family time and hydrotherapy benefits from their new Sundance Spa.”
We wish Roseanne, Dennis and their family a lifetime of happy hot tubbing in their Sundance Hamilton Spa!

This is the 8th year in a row that the award has been given to Hot Spring Spas of Santa Cruz.

“We are thrilled to have been awarded this win again, especially during the year 2020,” said Spa and Sauna Company Owner Scott Clark. “We would like to thank our team, our customers, the community, and the Santa Cruz Sentinel for this award.”

The Spa and Sauna Company earned two awards in 2020 from Sundance Spas at their virtual dealer conference this year.
Despite the challenges that the year 2020 presented, The Spa and Sauna Company was awarded The Sundance Gold Club Award for Exceptional Sales Performance and the Exceptional Customer Service Award.
The Gold Club award recognizes dealers whose Sundance Spas sales volume ranked in the top 10% of dealers nationwide.
In a letter from 2 directors of sales at Sundance Spas, Bett Sitton and Paul Garratt wrote: “Your hard work and dedication to the Sundance Spas Brand has earned you special recognition…Congratulations on your success in 2020.”
In a year when The Spa and Sauna Company embraced selling hot tubs over FaceTime and other virtual apps, not having as many hot tubs to display, working with customers while socially distanced and wearing masks, and an increasing in demand for hot tubs, this award truly means a lot.
The Spa and Sauna Company has also earned both of these awards previously, too.
“We’d like to thank Sundance Spas for these awards and their support this year, and we look forward to what 2021 will bring,” said Company Owner Scott Clark. “We’d also like to extend a big thank you to our entire team, especially our sales and customer service teams.”
To read more about The Spa and Sauna Company and see our full list of awards over the years, click here.
The Spa and Sauna Company began carrying Sundance Spas in late 2013 at its Reno area stores. It is one of several high-end hot tub brands that the Spa and Sauna Company is proud to offer.
Other hot tub manufacturers decided not to present awards in 2020, due to the unusual circumstances the year presented.

2020 has been quite the year, but despite everything happening in the world, The Spa and Sauna Company has been able to find a few positives this year.
Here’s our Best of The Spa and Sauna Company for 2020.
Transition to Digital Hot Tub Selling
This year, we learned that there are more than a few ways to sell a hot tub and hot tub supplies, besides within the showroom! With the sudden transition to people spending more time at home, interest in backyard fitness and wellness equipment, including hot tubs and swim spas, sky-rocketed.
We came up with solutions to allow people to buy a hot tub without ever stepping foot inside a showroom, and for much of our team to work remotely for a time too. Using FaceTime and other video apps became a great way to reach our customers face-to-face without ever being face-to-face. We now also provide virtual backyard consultations for planning purposes too. We can even provide virtual showroom tours and videos of the hot tubs we commonly have available.
Also this year, we have encouraged our customers to sign up for our Autoship program, so water care supplies are sent directly to their homes, when needed.
In July, we launched a new and improved online store for hot tub supplies this year, click here to shop.

The Spa and Sauna Company’s 30th Anniversary
In July 2020, The Spa and Sauna Company marked its 30th year in operation. In that 30 years, The Spa and Sauna Company has grown from 1 showroom in San Jose to 5 showrooms in Reno, Sparks, San Jose and Santa Cruz. To read more about the history of hot tubs and The Spa and Sauna Company’s growth in that time, click here.
Addition of a New Showroom Area
Also in 2020, we expanded our South Virginia St. Showroom, when the suites next door became available.
Benefits of the new space include, a larger showroom, more hot tubs and swim spas and saunas on display, more warehouse space, and expanded office space for our team.
Customers Using their Hot Tubs and Swim Spas to Improve Wellness and Achieve Dreams
This year, we have received more feedback from people participating in our 30 Soaks in 30 Days Wellness Challenge than ever before. If you have a hot tub, we think you should be using it. All you need to do is use your hot tub for 20 minutes a day and track your progress on the tracker we provide digitally. If you’d like to take the challenge, click here for more info. Prizes are awarded for completed and returned challenges.
Also this year, we learned that one of our Swim Spa customers is training for a solo swim across Lake Tahoe next summer, in the Endless Pool she bought from The Spa and Sauna Company in 2016. Haydee Acebo, of Reno, is training to become the first Latina to complete the marathon length swim across Lake Tahoe. She is documenting her training on Instagram and Facebook @haydeeadventurer. The 21-mile swim in 2021 will be dedicated to 21 different social causes. The Spa and Sauna Company will be supporting her on her journey. Right now, she’s training 6 days a week, 4 miles a day in her Endless Pool X200. To read more about her journey, and solo swim planned for August 2021, click here.
Conclusion
In conclusion, 2020 wasn’t our favorite year for sure. However, we’ve found that 2020 has increased the number of people shopping for, buying, and using their hot tubs and swim spas. We’ve done our best to make the most of this year and we’re looking forward to 2021.

Haydee Acebo has big dreams, and she’s training to get there one mile of swim training at a time, in her Endless Pools Swim Spa.
Haydee, a Reno resident, is training to be the first Latina to swim solo across Lake Tahoe this coming summer, and she will be dedicating each mile of her swim to a different social cause.
She trains daily in the Endless Pools X200 that she bought from The Spa and Sauna Company in 2016. You can find her 6 days a week, currently swimming 4 miles per day.
“There’s no way I could do [this] without my Endless Pool,” said Haydee, now 40.
Haydee has already completed many long and challenging swims, including a swim from Alcatraz Island to San Francisco, four swims across Donner Lake, and two relays spanning the width of Lake Tahoe.
How Haydee Began Swimming
Haydee, originally from Ecuador, has been swimming since her high school days, when participating in a school sport was a requirement.
She says she wasn’t the strongest swimmer on her high school team, or even her college swim team, but began working with coaches to improve her skills. Over time, swimming became a big part of Haydee’s life. Learning that she personally can overcome obstacles has inspired her to encourage members of the Latin community to feel that same empowerment.
“As long as I can train, I can do so many things,” said Haydee, a former bilingual television reporter and producer, who now works in talent acquisition.
She wants to spread messages of hope to those in the Latin community and the Reno-Tahoe community.
“I see a lot of obstacles within my group. The fact that I have a swim spa, even though it’s the most basic…it’s a privilege,” Haydee said.
About the Endless Pools X200
An Endless Pools X200 allows for year-round swim training in your own backyard. But an X200 can also be used for more than that. It’s the perfect place to train, exercise, relax play and entertain, and of course enjoy the hydrotherapy of a hot tub too.
Coming in at just 12 feet long, it’s compact enough for most backyards, while still offering benefits of larger swim spas from Endless Pools.
“Endless Pools Swim Spas are great for training, relaxation, and family time,” said Spa and Sauna Company owner Scott Clark. “It offers the best of both worlds – a hot tub and a swim spa combined.”

21 miles, 21 causes, 2021
The big event is set for August 7, 2021 beginning at 9 p.m. And this isn’t just a personal challenge for Haydee. She will be dedicating each mile of her swim to 21 different social causes.
Between now and then, there is much to do, including more training and finding her causes.
While Haydee, who lives with her husband and two children, has some causes that are close to her heart, she will be asking her social media following for suggestions. And for those who respond, they will be enrolled in a giveaway.
Some of the causes closest to her heart are:
- Mental health
- Equality
- Child abuse prevention
- Cancer Awareness and Cures
Once her causes are identified, she will be seeking sponsorship. The Spa and Sauna Company has already decided to be one of Haydee’s sponsors.
Haydee’s ultimate goal is to create resources for people, related to each of the causes that get selected.
You can find out more about Haydee at @haydeeadventurer on Instagram or Facebook.
What will Happen on Race Day
It’s a big adventure and Haydee can’t do it on her own.
“I need other people’s support,” she said.
She isn’t swimming in a race. It will just be Haydee and the lake.
Supporting her, between now and the day of the big swim, are her family and friends, The Spa and Sauna Company, her social media following, a swim coach, and many swimming friends.
On the day of the race, a boat captain, crew chief, and two kayakers will be alongside her in one boat. Her husband, a doctor and others will be in a second boat on the day of her swim.
“We are so impressed that Haydee will be working toward this goal in the Endless Pools X200 that she purchased from The Spa and Sauna Company,” Clark said.
Good luck, Haydee!

Hot tub, swim spa and pool water care can get tricky sometimes, especially when you add in falling ash and smoke from the recent fires that are happening in California, Nevada, and other areas along the West Coast.
Extra debris falling into your hot tub, swim spa or pool may result in your sanitization system requiring more chlorine. We have a variety of chlorinating products available in store and on our online store. Shop now.
Free Water Testing
At The Spa and Sauna Company family of stores, in Reno, Sparks, San Jose and Santa Cruz, we offer FREE in-store water testing, to help determine exactly how your hot tub, swim spa or pool has been affected by falling ash or intense smoke in the area.
Read more about our computerized water testing that provides instant recommendations here. Look for your nearest store location that provides water testing here.
Recommendations for Water Care after the Fires
- Be sure to test your water frequently, and consider bringing in a water sample to one of our showrooms for a free water analysis. You will want to pay extra attention to pH and sanitizer residuals, and correct any imbalances as soon as possible.
- Ash coming from trees and other vegetation contains large amounts of carbonate, which can radically increase the pH of your water.
- Shocking with chlorine if the free chlorine residual is low until a free chlorine residual is successfully maintained
- Be sure to keep your filters running (and clean)
- If your hot tub, swim spa or pool has a cover, keep it on during times of falling ash or intense smoke
We also have an online store where you can pick up a few extra items that you might need. Shipping is FREE on orders of over $75. Just select Free Shipping at checkout.
Spa, Swim Spa or Pool items you might need
- Spa Vac. Click here to purchase.
- Extra Filters. Click here to shop filters.
- Filter Cleaner. Click here to purchase filter cleaner.
- Test Strips. Click here to shop test strips.
- Any of the usual sanitation you normally use for your hot tub. Shop here.
Heavily Affected Areas
Additionally, in areas of particularly bad fallout, or in cases where the entire system was shut down due to lack of power, damage, etc., we recmmend the use of a portable vacuum cart to do the initial vacuuming to pull up as much of the settled debris as possible before re-starting the filtration system.
