I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I wanted to fill you in on some of the questions we've received. Questions are great! So don't hesitate to leave a comment here on this blog post or email me at elizabeth.kartchner(at)gmail.com

Here's some of the exciting deets... !


What Hotel do you suggest?

For convenience there is a great hotel nearby with a
free shuttle to and from Spark!
University Park Marriott
480 Wakara Way SLC, UT
Reservations by dialing: 801.581.1000 or 800.627-7468 Also if you go to http://www.marriott.com/ they have an Online Special
going on right now for the same weekend as Spark. Cool!

Is the full amount due at registration?
On Monday August 24th at 10am mountain standard time you can start registering. There will be an option for $150 down and the rest of the $150 by October 1st.
(Unfortunately this option can't be combined with first 50 get $50 off. sorry.)

*What is included with the Spark Event Ticket?

-Yummy
Goodie Bag at registration. Not goodies to eat (though those will be there too), but sparky, amazing, fun, eye-candy goodies... :)

-The ticket price also includes Full Kits with all the supplies for the classes and let me tell you, they will be fabulous!
(You will only be asked to bring your basic tools and a list of those will be given to you after you've bought your ticket to the event. These tools will, mostly likely, be stuff you already have on hand)

Also, to pass the spark we light along to others, we will be doing a
service project at the event, making a spark (group) jumble quilt... please bring a 6"x6"piece of fabric. Keep it simply beautiful or dress it up. We will be donating the beautiful quilt that includes a little piece from each of us.


The event ticket also
includes your food, which is:

Friday:
Registration begins at 12:00 where we will have finger foods and drinks
Dinner
Snacks and drinks through out the day

I can't find the Spark Special on the Marriott site... do I need to call to find out what the rate is? I'm trying to see if I can swing this event... I would be there for sure if I were local, but airfare from Virginia and then the hotel is making it trickier!

Cameron,
just emailed you...

It's awesome because marriot has an online special the same weekend as the event. It doesn't say the Spark special on the site. Sorry, for the confusion.
Let me know if you have any questions with the hotel.

Erin,

Is anyone else having trouble getting the hotel special? I checked yesterday a.m. before I booked and could see the $79.99 available. Today I am ready to book and it is offering $109.99 as the lowest price. Ahhh. Help.
