Your Retreat Committee has contracted with our “Big Gun” to be the featured teacher at the BHQG’s 2008 Retreat. Our National teachers this year are Gail Garber (www.gailgarberdesigns.com) Sue Nickles (www.Sue.Nickles.com) and Vi Colombe. This year’s theme is “Safari”. Be sure to mark your calendar to hold the dates of October 2, 3, 4 and 5. The Safari Retreat will start as usual with registration and supper on Thursday and will end with breakfast and show and tell on Sunday morning. Respecting the vote that was taken the last day of the 2007 retreat, we will return to the Cedar Canyon Camp located in Rapid City. (Cedar Canyon Camp web site is (www.cedarcanyoncamp.com). Remember the fun of overnight with girlfriends can be even more fun with your quilting friends so make plans to stay over with us.
