The Inn at Windmere has 6 guest rooms - would accommodate 6 if no one shared rooms, 10 if people shared rooms but not beds. With 7 or more people, the rate is $160 per person - but it includes your stay, dinner Friday & Saturday, breakfast Sat & Sun, and lunch on Saturday. It also includes snacks and refreshments for the duration of your stay.

They offer a large room they say will hold 12 scrapbookers - each person has a 6 foot table, chair and ott lite. The B&B also has wireless internet.

This place looks very nice and with all meals included, I thought 160 a person is a fair price - I've seen some that charge 300 for the same package.

As far as scrapbook stores - I know that Fort Wayne has Joanne's, HL, Michael's and an Archiver's. There are also some independent shops but I'm not sure of the names to look them up online.

I think if we want to do this, we need to set a date soon - looking at availability on this inn's website, they already had some rooms booked that far out. I found two weekends that had all the rooms available: May 27-29 and June 17-19.

Here is the link if anyone wants to take a look: http://www.innatwindmere.com/index.html

I'll look at a few other places and see what else I can find as far as affordability, etc.

Linking to important post from Lora. Memorial Day weekend is not good others have decided.

Anyone have artwork ideas for a t-shirt design that we can make ourselves in iron vinyl? I had suggested earlier to use some lettering JoAnn made that says Craft Edge...but it would need more. This would spur interest in the event and even if it does not happen or I don't go...I would still like a Scalapalooza t-shirt :)
