Mountain Stars Spring Retreat 2023

The Spring 2023 retreat at Diamond Lake is set for Friday-Sunday, April 14th through the 16th. This retreat will offer participants time to work on their UFOs. The link to register for the retreat is below and we encourage you to register early. The cost is $40 for members, $80 for non-members (which includes a Mountain Stars membership).

Just to recap in case you are a newer member of MSQG, the registration fee you pay to Mt. Stars pays for the sewing room rental, a small subsidy for Saturday’s chair-massage therapist, as well as actual costs of providing the retreat. The surplus goes into the Guild’s general fund, allowing the Guild to subsidize some of the cost of providing world-class teachers each year.

Back to retreat specifics, you then pay for your own housing – most participants share a room rental with others or get a motel or kitchenette for themselves. To make your reservations just call the toll free number for Diamond Lake Resort, 1-800-733-7593 and remember to ask for the quilters discount.

The retreat begins about noon on Friday and you are welcome to stay as late on Sunday as you wish. We usually begin packing up the Guild supplies about 1:00 that afternoon but you do not have to leave when we do! The sewing room is upstairs at the main lodge, overlooking the lake, and couldn’t be more beautiful.  Friday night we have the traditional “Dutch Treat” dinner at the Diamond Lake Restaurant. Bring snacks to share and an item or two for the Potluck on Saturday during lunch.

We work to provide a relaxing and fun environment for you. I hope you’ll consider joining us, especially if you haven’t attended one in the past.

Please email Lisa Sherrill at sherrill@sou.edu with any questions you may have that haven’t been addressed.
