Trying to guess the weather in the Rockies in April is just about impossible. In fact, there can be many different types of weather in the same day! Most likely, the sun will shine a lot, it will be breezy, and the days will be mild and the nights chilly. So dressing in layers is wise. It will not be shorts weather (we are far different than Phoenix!), but you will probably be okay in jeans and a workshirt or sweatshirt during the day, and will need a jacket in the evening. We could even have a freak snow flurry, but that is highly unlikely and would not last long anyway.
Santa Fe is a casual place. Only one restaurant I know of has a dress code and we won’t be going there, so pack comfortable clothes and some stuff that can get paint etc on it - to wear to your workshops.
Please choose a gift in the $15 range that would really excite another creative person. Gift wrap the package so that it is not recognizable and write your name on the bottom of the package wrapping. This gift is for the Sunday morning Gift Pile Party.
This list is currently being compiled. Most materials and supplis will be provided, but we will be asking you to bring tools that you probably have and that are too expensive for us to buy for everyone - like a digital camera for example, and some wire working pliers.
We will make an announcement on the Retreat Yahoo Group as soon as we have this list complete (and in pleanty of time for you to pack!). (http:groups.yahoo.com/group/sunrisesantafe)
