Prices quoted are for members only; non-members slightly higher (+$12).
In-house teachers: $25............National teachers: $45
IMPORTANT: Only payment in full reserves your workshop space. In order to hold your spot in any class, you must pay for it now. Make checks out to Naples Quilters Guild, and mail them to Linda Biondino. Her address is in the roster.
The guild does not provide refunds. If you are unable to attend, YOU must find your replacement. The program chairman will maintain a waiting list, but it will be your responsibility to fill your spot.
NOTE - New Classroom Location: Our workshops and Gathering Stitches are now held at the Golden Gate Community Center, 4701 Golden Gate Parkway. Please note if you bring your own lunch: the kitchen is no longer available to guild members on workshop days. A McDonald's is right across the street, and there are several other places to eat, like "Subway" in the general area.
Future workshops are up to you! Because attendance at workshops has fallen off in recent years, we have adopted a far more conservative policy in booking future teachers. Although the guild underwrites some of the expense of our teachers, our Standing Rules mandate that workshops shall be self-sustaining. We have calculated that with all the expenses (travel, teacher fees and an increase in GGCC fee) a minimum of 15 participants is our break-even point. In fairness to our teachers and to enable us to avoid paying for things we can’t use, we must decide at least 30 days in advance whether we will have a workshop or will need to cancel it. We simply cannot wait until the day before.
What can you do to help?
- Support the guild and take some classes! Sign up today! Try something new. You’re bound to develop some new skills and you’ll definitely have a good time while making new friends and strengthening old bonds.
- Talk to your friends and suggest teachers that several of you would like us to contact for the 2008-2009 year. We’re always looking for ideas, and we want to be sure we are hiring the people you truly want to see.
If you have any questions or want to sign up for any of our wonderful classes,
- Send your checks made out to NQG to: Pat Walrath (Please see our directory for Pat's mailing address.) PaWalrath@aol.com
