This is a gorgeous place for the retreat!!!

Peaceful and Inspirational

We are fortunate that the Lodge is but 3 miles south of town!  Close enough to travel back and forth for dining and exploring the town during breaks (that is IF you want to leave). 
If you choose to stay at the hotels or bed and breakfast establishments they are just 3 miles back to town!
(Limited opportunity to lodge at River Hills Lodge is available)

Most likely you will supply up and stay close to the retreat, a fabulous kitchen is available for use, so as to not miss any of the BONUS activities.
In town, there is a fully stocked grocery store available.

July 25 is the first day of class, a Friday
Some will have traveled in on Thursday to be in place for the early start of class day one.

That, Friday evening, the Stagecoach is going to host a meet and greet with a little wine and some meat cheese and crackers.
Everyone joining the retreat, for 1 day or all 3, are WELCOME and encouraged to attend.

We will light the fire pit (if no fire restrictions are in force) and mingle and get to know your neighbor and the instructors, talk about your first days experience.

July 26th day two on Saturday, around the fire-pit will be more of the same mingling.  There are plenty of storage places and cold boxes, to store snacks and to cool off your beverage of choice.

A BONUS is planned for Saturday evening~night photography!!!
Everyone attending the retreat is encouraged to partake this event.

Other BONUSES are being planned, but we haven't made final cuts and decisions regarding them yet.
As we make the plans we will update the blog and stagecoach gallery page, or leave them as surprises!

We are purposely keeping the classes small
So that the highest quality of instruction is passed to the participating students. 

With a limited number of seats for each instructor, the classes are filling quickly.

When signing up for your desired class, will be a non-refundable deposit of 50%. 
This deposit will hold your seat until April 15, 2014.

At this time, May 15, 2014 is expected the remaining portion of the class fee. 
Failure to remit the remaining portion, forfeits the seat for class and that chance then passes to the first person on the wait list.

After May 15, IF there are seats remaining, sign up will require an in full payment.

Any questions you have about this retreat, signing up, getting supply lists where applicable, direct to
