WELCOME TO THE SUN REGION’S 2025 RETREAT
April 4-6, 2025
Make the Wish Come True!
Let the countdown to Sun Region hosting National Seminar in 2026 in Orlando begin!
The 2026 National Seminar theme is “Wish Upon a Stitch” and many of the committees for seminar will meet during the 2025 retreat to make plans. That is where our retreat theme “Make the Wish Come True” originated. While some seminar work is going on we can still have fun visiting with friends and stitching! The retreat will be at the Courtyard by Marriott in Orange Park, FL. We have held several events at that location, and it has always been a fun time.
The Make the Wish Come True! registration form with additional information can be downloaded <HERE>
The retreat will begin on Friday, April 4th, following the Sun Region Spring meeting, and will continue until Sunday, April 6th at 4:00 pm. We hope you will consider attending the luncheon before the board meeting at 11:30am and the board meeting which will begin at 1pm. During the retreat we plan to have some demonstrations, goody bags, door prizes, the usual opportunity baskets, some fun “new stash enhancement opportunities,” and plenty of time for stitching. Your $160 registration fee includes: access to the demonstrations and stitching room all three days, breakfast and lunch on Saturday and Sunday, and throughout the retreat snacks and beverages.
The Marriott Courtyard at Orange Park is a fabulous location with plenty of dinner options close by. The Room rate is $129 per night (plus tax) for a room with One King and a sofa bed, or two queen beds. These rates are available for three days before and after the retreat, and cutoff for reservations is March 5, 2025.
