Geez - I just got back from Louisville KY myself was there from last Tuesday till Sunday - I got to visit the Glassfactory downtown but that was about it (I was sick with the flu and was attending the Pumper Cleaner Show )
So do you have a list of how many can fit in the house ? maps of where it is - I'm a planner and I have to look at everything first - flights, accomodation - how I'm going to bring 1/2 my studio - you know the basics........

No way Deborah! We were out at the KY Exposition Center near the airport. How'd you like the snow?

I have most of the info in the first post of this thread. We're up to 20 in the cabin - 30 is the limit. Any over 30 need to tent or get a hotel room. Let me know if you have other questions. We'll probably start planning more seriously in a few weeks...

It's beds. This place is amazing! There are a few bedrooms with multiple beds, a big finished walk out basement with futons, some roll aways and the upstairs loft is dorm style with lots of beds. No bunk beds up there but plenty of other beds. No one sleeps on a couch. I think some people brought blow up beds too but I don't remember.

It should be called a lodge instead of a cabin.

Thanks for answering Lori. I'm going to check with Carol today. I think they switched some beds around recently. But there's plenty of room for up to 30 of us in the cabin. Some are bringing air beds, some will share doubles or queens.

Anyone else planning on coming?

It's time to begin plans for the 2008 Cabin Retreat!! The dates are a week earlier this year, May 16 ~18 ... For those of you who are new, this will be the 6th time we've met at a beautiful log lodge in Big Rapids, MI which is about 1 hour north of Grand Rapids. It has 3 bedrooms and a large sleeping loft. For our retreat we'll be limiting the number of glasser's actually staying at the cabin to 30. There are enough beds and cots to sleep about 20 I think. The last 10 will need to bring their own cot or air mattress. There is also room for a few tents to be pitched on the property - so if that is an option for you we can allow several of those as well. And finally, there are several hotels within a 10 - 15 minute drive for those who would like to drive in during the day.

Okay, now the $$ details. We changed a few things in back 2005 and they worked so well that we’ll be doing it again this year. I will be bringing up a couple of my friends to cater our meals and clean up the cabin on Sunday. And I will also rent the oxygen from a local company who will deliver to the cabin so we don't have to worry about people transporting their tanks.

The costs are as follows:

For those staying or tenting at the cabin: $100 per person. That includes two nights lodging, Friday dinner, meals on Saturday, and breakfast and lunch on Sunday.

For those staying at a hotel: $50 per person which includes Friday dinner, meals on Saturday, and breakfast and lunch on Sunday.

For those coming on Saturday only: $25 per person which includes meals for the day.

And now the rest of the details: I need you to initial and sign a copy of the “Rules for the Cabin” and enclose it with your check. I’m hoping that will help everyone understand the premise of what our retreat is all about!

Cancellation policy: No refunds after 4/28/08, before that there will be a $25 cancellation fee. If you can find someone to take your place - great! But I will not be responsible for finding that person and you will need to arrange the payment details as well as notify me of the change.

PM me for my mailing address.

Sleeping space in the cabin will be on a first $$, first bed basis. I will assign spots as I receive your reservations.

Can't wait to see you all!

2008 Cabin guests... so far!

Keep looking - maybe we'll get lucky and there'll be a sale... You wouldn't have to worry about a bed - we'll have something for you!

Re: Demos.

I'll demo anything anyone wants, torch-wise. I'm a one trick pony in that regard.

Although, two years ago I did win the burping contest for my team.

A quick reminder that everyone needs to get a bead picture to RobinJ ASAP today so she can put together the graphic for our t-shirts. It would be great to have one from everyone. The one she did a couple years ago is still my favorite sweatshirt of all time!
