In our new Covid reality, we all know that things are changing daily... However, as best as I can, I want to give you an update on what the September 3-6 retreat may look like, based on current information from the hotel, as well as CDC and state guidelines.
Please use this information to plan accordingly. If you have already signed up for the retreat, but decide that you are no longer comfortable attending, that is ok and you will get a full refund. I also ask that if you start to feel ill, develop any symptoms, or if someone you know comes down with Covid in the two weeks prior to the retreat, that you not come. Again, you will get a full refund.
My first priority is to keep everyone safe and healthy, while still being able to gather together to share our passion for scrapbooking and other crafts. Let's show that we can safely gather by following these guidelines to keep ourselves and others safe. Here is what we know so far:

My first priority is to keep everyone safe and healthy, while still being able to gather together to share our passion for scrapbooking and other crafts. Let's show that we can safely gather by following these guidelines to keep ourselves and others safe. Here is what we know so far:
- Due to hotel policy, everyone is required to wear a mask at all times unless you are in your hotel room or in your seat in the crop room.
- Social distancing of 6' will be practiced. As always, each person gets 6' of table space. Also, aisles will be wider to meet these requirements.
- We will not be able to set up the die cut center, as I would not be able to adequately disinfect it between each person using the dies and die cut machines.
- There will be lots of disinfecting happening in the hotel and in the ballroom. Hand sanitizing stations will be setup around the ballroom as well.
All of this good stuff that will still be happening!
- Goodie bag items for each cropper
- Bingo prize for each cropper
- Door prize raffled off on Saturday
- Milestone Gifts
- Charity Raffle with oodles of great prizes to be won, all for a good cause
- On site shopping with lots of new product
- A great group of friendly and helpful crafters
- Plenty of inspiration to go around
- Uninterrupted time to work on your crafts and chat with friends, new and old
- 24 x 7 access to the crop room
- chair massages (you pay Marissa directly)
I will continue to monitor Covid guidelines and will continue to be in touch with the hotel. I will provide updates as the retreats get closer with any new developments or changes. Breakfast and other food/drink continue to be an unknown at this time. I will provide additional updates as those pieces get worked out as well.
