Kansas - Annual Retreat
The
3rd annual QOV-Kansas
Retreat is almost here! The committee is gathering door prizes and
searching
for a guest speakers. But we have the pertinent information ready.
Here
is what you need to know:
Our
retreat this year will
be held at Henderson
House Inn and Retreat Center in
Stafford, KS. We can check
in at 3 pm on Friday, March 19th. The house we currently have
reserved has
12 beds available. There are 2 or 3 twin beds in each room upstairs.
There is
one handicap accessible room on the first floor, which has a kind size
bed. There
are private rooms available if you stay in one of the other houses.
However,
the price goes up with a private room. (If you need info on a private
room,
please contact me for details.) Each of the rooms has a private full
bathroom.
We check out at 5 pm on Sunday, March 21st.
Stafford is only
approximately 1.5 hours northwest of Wichita.
Friday night we will have
games to play. As always we will have our super fun "strip poker"
game. Don't worry, there will be no shedding of clothes... you play
poker and
bet with pre-cut strips of fabric instead of chips. We will also have
Quiltopoly available this year.
Saturday
we will be taking a field trip to Alden, KS to the fantastic quilt shop there! You won't want to miss the fun.
We will also be having
some wonderful door prizes throughout the day on Saturday. Everyone who
attends
automatically gets one entry into the door prizes. But if you really
want those
prizes, there are ways to swing the vote in your favor. Just like last
year, we
are going to give extra tickets for donations to QOV. If you bring a
roll of
batting for QOV, that gets you two tickets. A two pack of high thread
count
red, white, blue, or beige standard size pillowcases (plain, so we can
embroider them) gets you one extra ticket. A prepared binding in a red
or blue
print, gets you another two tickets.
The
cost of the retreat is as follows:
Full weekend attendance is $135.This includes
all three meals on Saturday, plus breakfast and lunch on
Sunday. And a new QOV t-shirt! Saturday only attendance is $37. This
includes lunch and dinner.
Sunday only attendance is $30 and includes lunch only.
**Payment and registration forms are due by
February 13th.
Are you ready to register?
We hope you can join us for all the fun!
