Hi All,

I know that I have mentioned Stampfest before, but it is now time to sign-up
so I thought I would mention it again.

Stampfest is a retreat for those who love to carve rubber stamps (total
beginners to well known rubber stamp carving artists). It starts Nov. 19
afternoon through November 22 afternoon. It is held at La Casa de Maria in
Monticeto (just south of Santa Barbara, CA). It is a long weekend of
creative seminars, carving, fun, good home cooked cafeteria food, laughing,
sharing, and most everyone checks their ego at the door. I'm setting up a
series of letterboxes on the grounds for the weekend in order to introduce
Stampfesters to Letterboxing. So you can get some letterboxing in too.

To give you an idea about the cost:
(this doesn't include your transportation to Monticeto, Duh)

Single Occupancy $400.00
Double Occupancy $348.00
Triple Occupancy $322.00
This includes all meals except Friday evening. If you come alone and want a
double or triple they will put you with other single types, but don't worry
you spend almost no time in the room. Most stay up and play well into the
wee hours of the morning. They are not luxury accommodations. If you want
to stay off-site there are prices for participating with food and without
food.

If you are interest in going contact Kat Okamoto at katchatin@aol.com, or
call 310 329-8555. There is very limited space (about 40 spaces), so act
fast if you want to come play.

Happy Letterboxing!!!

Wendy
