Exclamation 4th 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:
4th Annual MO Bead Retreat
When: Friday, May 15th, 2009 - Monday, May 18th, 2009
Where: Alhonna Resort, Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri
Cost: $80/person (includes 3 nights!)

CURRENT SPOTS AVAILABLE: 6

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 40 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 40 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 at the following address: mobeadretreat[at]gmail[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 $80/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. You'll need to create a profile to join the site, which will then be approved by me (Karla), Melissa (villa design) or Becky (caspertorch). Be sure to read the "Details & Payment Info" page, 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! Melissa, Becky or I will be happy to answer them as soon as we get the chance! Thanks, and I hope to see you in May!!!

-Karla

Hi Pat! There should be a tab that reads "Details & Payment Info" on the main page of www.mobeadretreat.com

Here's a screen shot of the website. I've circled the tab in orange.



You'll also need to join the site if you want access to all of the features and information available on the website. Click on the "Join this Webjam" button located on the main page, and follow the instructions. You should be good to go!

Please let me know if you have any other questions!

Thank you!

* waving Hi Deb!!! * and asking "is it May yet?" or really... is it Feb yet? then is it May yet??? LOL

J and I want to get our own room this year (either just the 2 of us or w/Nori and her J, gotta ask her yet!) but need to know, do we call Alhonna ourselves (and get the right price?) or do we call them and then pay through you Karla???

I'm still recovering from the dog attack (long story, if you are in St. L in Feb, I'll tell it, otherwise, try my cell phone of an evening to try to track me down... I'm working overtime to catch up at work and school), but I can't type well yet. Whta you see here is still about only one handed....

and it's my first post on LE in literally MONTHS!!!

but I had to, it's the MBR thread, finally!!!

again, is it Feb (or May) yet?????

love you all,

stac

Hi Lori! I was wondering when you sent me your email. I haven't received anything from anyone in a few days and wanted to make sure I didn't overlook it. Also, which email account did you send it to?

I sure hope you can come! It's WAY too much fun!

Thanks!

Lori - Melissa is correct...it'll pick up. Everyone's currently focused on the Midwest Glass Experience! After this weekend....the site should become more active.

Also...THANKS JOAN for pointing out the date typo in my initial post.
