What to expect:
Sewing tables - Each person will have their own 2’ x 4’ table. Due to limited space, we ask that you do not bring your own tables. If you would like to have a tray table for extra space or pressing we do have some of those available. If you need your personal sewing chair, feel free to bring it. The Retreat Center has design walls by the sewing tables. We do have assigned seating for sewing, so if you are traveling with friends and would like to sit together to sew please indicate that on the registration form. You will also be able to choose if you would like to use one of our sewing machines and if you are coming in a day early. If you had indicated these three things when you registered we already have your information. No further contact with Susan is necessary. Only if you need further assistance should you contact: [email protected].
Meals - A continental breakfast will be served Tuesday morning. Wednesday morning we serve quiche along with our side items. Thursday we have homemade biscuits, gravy and sides. Friday will be a home made muffin and sides. All of our breakfasts begin at 7:30 am. Our breakfast includes cereal, oatmeal, toast, bagels, yogurt, cottage cheese, hard boiled eggs, & fresh fruit. Lunch and dinner will be provided by our local caterers. Lunches are served at 12:00 pm Wednesday and Thursday. Dinners will be served at 6:00 pm Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings.

Snack Table - There will be a snack sharing table. Feel free to bring your own favorite munchies to share, we prefer prepackaged for the time being. There is coffee, tea, water, and ice available for you. If you would like to have special drinks, feel free to bring them with you. You can store them in our refrigerator. You do have use of the kitchen area except when the meals are being served. The kitchen has a refrigerator, oven, microwave, and dishwasher that you can use. We also have a Keurig for your use, just bring your favorite K-Cup. (The Retreat Center has gone to all paper products.) Please be considerate to others and clean up after you use the kitchen.
