3rd Annual Missouri Bead Retreat!!!
It's that time again! Time to start planning for the annual Missouri Bead Retreat! We're only 4 short months away, so be sure to bust out your calendars and mark down the dates!
Here's the information on this year's event:
What: 3rd Annual MO Bead Retreat
When: Friday, May 16th, 2008 - Monday, May 19th, 2008
Where: Alhonna Resort, Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri
Cost: $60/person (includes 3 nights!)
4 SPOTS LEFT!!!!
Please contact Karla to be placed on the Waiting List. You may also contact the Alhonna Resort directly to inquire about your own accomodations. There are a few hotels that are several miles from the resort as another alternative. (There's a Baymont Inn located about 8 miles from the resort, there's also the Lodge of the Four Seasons which is closer, but probably a bit pricier.)
We've reserved 4, four bedroom condos right on the lake! These condos are all a part the same building and contain extremely large, covered decks, which are perfect for torching! The set up has worked out perfectly last few years, and I can't wait to do it again! We have a total of 48 spots available, so be sure to sign up today!
Why should I go?
To socialize, make beads, eat, make beads, relax, more eating and making even more beads! It's incredibly fun and a great way to watch others work, participate in demos/activities or just to relax in general!
When's the deadline to sign up?
The deadline to send in your payment is April 1st. Even with 48 spots, we'll fill up quickly so be sure to claim yours today! If you want to send a payment via snail mail, check out the RAOGK section for my address. Payments can also be made via PayPal. Please send $62 (the $2 help cover the PayPal fees) to karla[at]sirwatson[dot]com.
Do I need to bring anything?
Yes! Besides yourself, be sure to bring some food or drinks to share, torches or lampworking equipment and of course....BEADS! We'll have sign up sheets (on the website) where people can volunteer to bring specific items, so be sure to check those out!
How do I get there?
The Lake of the Ozarks is centrally located in Missouri and easy to access from anywhere. It's about a 3 hour drive from St. Louis or Kansas City. Visit the MO Bead Retreat website for maps and directions.
Do I have to stay for all 3 nights?
Nope, but you'll want to! Unless, you're staying for the day only, all retreat-attendees will need to pay the $60/person to help cover the reservations for all 3 nights.
Sounds like fun! Where do I learn more?
Be sure to visit the Missouri Bead Retreat website at: www.mobeadretreat.com. The website is actually a Yahoo! group, so you'll need to join the group to have access to the information files. Be sure to read the "General Information about the Missouri Bead Retreat" (in the Files section), which contains important information about the event, costs, reserving your spot and how to pay.
Feel free to post general questions about the retreat in this thread! I'll be happy to answer them as soon as I get the chance! Thanks, and I hope to see you in May!!! 
-Karla

Dang it! Well...maybe some year we'll have our retreats on different weekends! 
Either way, we should have some sort of "trans-midwest" bead retreat challenge!!! Hmmm...... 
I'll have to think this one through a little more.
