SAVE THE DATE! February 1-4, 2021! Getting a venue the size we need for the weaving retreat in south Florida in the peak of "season" is not an easy task. And booking WAY in advance is the only hope of securing it. So it's done! In 2021 (yep ... that's 2021), we'll be back at the Crowne Plaza Hotel at Bell Tower Shops in Ft. Myers, Florida. Mark your calendars now so you won't be disappointed with a date conflict later. And you might notice also ... the dates are reserved for FOUR days of weaving in 2021. This is not yet cast in concrete, but it's reserved while it's being given some consideration. I'd love to hear your feedback!
