Hello Quilting and Sewing Friends!

EARLY-BIRD RETREAT REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN FOR MY SPRING SEWING RETREAT 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 this extra long weekend except for YOUR agenda! The food is fantastic, the setting serene, and the focused time away, invaluable! Bring your sewing machine/quilting gear and come spend a weekend working on your favorite projects! Check out this YouTube video for a glimpse into your weekend escape!

This retreat is a 3-night minimum weekend (either Thursday-Sunday or Friday-Monday) with the option to add on the 4th night. Pricing is as follows:

Thursday 3pm-Sunday 3pm OR Friday 3pm-Monday 3pm: $440

Thursday 3pm-Monday 3pm: $560

Your retreat cost includes all meals (except for Thursday dinner for those arriving Thursday), accommodations in rooms that sleep 2-4** guests, and a full 6' table for sewing. There will also be shared extra tables for laying out patterns, as well as irons and ironing boards set up for group use. Check out www.happyvalleycc.org for more info on this great venue!

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 1, 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!
