Camp Week at a Glance
What will we do all week?
Pandemic Update - There will be no organized shop hop list this year. There will be only two Vendors - Bolt and Quarters and The Fabric Shop - on Sunday and Monday. There will be no assistance from the High School for unloading or loading during camp week. We are keeping our bubble small to protect ourselves and loved ones at home. Please pack appropriately, in smaller bags and totes and take your time moving in and out!
Sunday
This is our 'Travel and Get There' Day. Get into camp between 1pm and 5:00 pm, sign in and get your room keys, class room assignments, and unpack. Even take your Monday class things into your classroom for tomorrow! Settle in and say hi to all your buddies from the past or make new friends with the neighbors for the week!
Dinner at the Dining Hall at 5:00
Assembly in the Assembly Hall at 6:30. Join us this special year as we acknowledge our two years apart with a special evening of Gloria Star Quilts, 4Patch Gloria Star Quilts, (please bring yours along!) and photos celebrating our past director and dear friend, Ms. Peg Bingham. Challenge Quilts from 2019 along with the Star Quilts will be our Show and Tell this evening, special announcements, and special gifts! You won't want to miss our time together. Seats will be spaced out and Masks will be requested of all attendees at all Assemblies.
Two Vendors will be joining us this evening and Monday night as well, so be prepared to do some shopping!
These three quilt tops made by Peg Bingham are ready for a lucky raffle winner to take each of them home! Backing and binding materials included, as well as class materials from Peg's classes, you will be able to purchase chances to win one or more of these during camp week. More information available at Assembly, but come prepared to buy some chances! All proceeds will go to The Friends of Cedar Lakes.
One of our Favorite Things is the Block Challenge! Winners of last year's Challenge need to bring their finished quilt to Show and Tell on Sunday for a special prize!
Monday
Breakfast in the Dining Hall starts at 7:30.
Class starts at 9am.
Lunch is 12:00noon.

Dinner at the Dining Hall at 5:00.
Assembly at the Assembly Hall at 6:30. Please wear a mask and practice social distancing. Show and Tell will begin with those that finished the Challenge blocks from 2019 into a quilt (special prizes). Then we will have Show and Tell from anyone (limit of two items each). This year to avoid the sharing of more than the quilts, we are asking for a notecard to be handed to a reader for the quilts shown, rather than sharing our germs on the microphone! Please include on each notecard your name, city and state, and any story you want to share about your quilt.
Remember to shop our Vendors before they pack up!
The Chapel will be open each day during lunch hours for quiet prayer and reflection
Are you interested in joining in the fun? Making a block or two is just the first step of the Challenge. Get the instructions here.
