Hello Crafting Friends!

EARLY-BIRD RETREAT REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN FOR ALL OF MY 2023 RETREATS AT HAPPY VALLEY!

ALL PRICES JUMP BY $25 AFTER JANUARY 15, 2023

Happy Valley Conference Center, nestled between Santa Cruz and Scotts Valley, is the perfect destination for you to do the things YOU love to do! There is NO agenda for the weekend except for YOUR agenda! The food is fantastic, the setting serene, and the focused time away, invaluable! Pack up your scrapbook or crafting gear and come spend a weekend working on your favorite projects! Check out this YouTube video for a glimpse into your weekend escape!

The basic retreat is Friday at 3pm-Sunday at 3pm and costs $320. Your retreat cost includes all meals (starting with dinner Friday, unless you choose an early-arrival option), accommodations in rooms that sleep 2-4** guests, and a full 6' table for executing your craft. Check out www.happyvalleycc.org for more info on this great venue!

You can add an early Friday arrival option for an additional $35 (which includes 9am arrival and lunch on Friday). You can also add an additional night or two: a Thursday 3pm arrival option AND/OR a Sunday night option for an additional $120 each. Thursday night option includes Friday breakfast and lunch and the Sunday night option includes dinner Sunday as well as breakfast and lunch on Monday.

Your minimal on-line deposit of $25 here on Humantix is NON-REFUNDABLE, but will be applied to the final cost of your retreat. Once you have registered, I will send you an invoice with your final bill and detailed info on how to make your final payment.

Final payments will be due by FEBRUARY 15, 2023. Feel free to make payments of smaller amounts between now and then, if that is helpful.

IMPORTANT COVID INFO:

Happy Valley is still requiring all guest groups to test upon arrival to ensure no one has COVID. ALL GUESTS WILL BE REQUIRED TO BRING THEIR OWN COVID TEST FOR TESTING. I will have a limited number available for $15 each, should anyone forget one.

CANCELLATION POLICY: NO refunds of deposits will be given.*** Once your payment has been made in full, you can receive a FULL refund (minus the $25 deposit) up until one month prior to retreat, a 50% refund until two weeks prior to the retreat, and no refunds can be given within two weeks of the retreat start date. If you test positive with Covid within 5 days of or upon arrival at the retreat, I can offer a partial credit towards a future retreat.

Feel free to let me know if you have any questions! Hope to see you this spring!
