2025 Spring Retreat Information



2025 Spring Retreat Information

Sign-ups and money due will start at the January meeting. Please make sure if you sign up, you are able to make it to retreat. There are medical emergencies that come up, but just changing your mind or another issue will require finding someone to take your place. Linck Hill has been very good with being flexible, but they do base food and amenities on the numbers. Once I submit the paperwork, they start planning food, rooms, etc. for us. Please be respectful of the time and effort it takes for them to prepare to have us.


ANY AND ALL FOOD ALLERGIES ARE TO BE DISCLOSED AT SIGN UPS!


Also needed will be your name and contact number, and emergency contact and phone number.


It has been discussed to have matching t-shirts made. Please have your shirt size available at sign up. If anyone not going to retreat would like a t-shirt, please sign up. I do not have a final price per shirt. It will depend on how many are ordering. I'm thinking $20 give or take.


Thank you for taking the time to read this far. Now, for details...

If anyone will have a guest come for a meal, the cost varies. Please let me know at sign-ups so I can give you a price for the meal and make sure the kitchen knows.

Retreat is always a blast and a way to get to know each other better. I'm looking forward to the time we spend together.
