This annual event is a unique opportunity for spinners to join together for a relaxing, long weekend of spinning, good food, friendship, fiber shopping, and fun at a woodland camp on beautiful Vashon Island, just 30 minutes from Seattle and 15 minutes from Tacoma. The weekend promises hours of uninterrupted spinning and a variety of optional activities (fiber vendors, demonstrations, used equipment sale, prizes, and wine tasting.) Questions? Please contact Kelli Brooke  at campburton@nwrsa.net. Please identify the subject of your email as: Camp Burton.
 
NEW THIS YEAR: 

• Packages that include Thursday night lodging with meals now INCLUDE Thursday night dinner served at 5:30 pm.
• For those requesting specific roommate(s), all roommates must register for the same nights and register within a week of each other.
• All roommates must register for the same nights in order to be placed in the same room/cabin.
• Due to changes by the Camp Burton's facility, we can no longer offer single-occupancy rooms.  Alternative single lodging is available at The Lodges on Vashon, www.lodgesonvashon.com.

HOUSING:  Two kinds of housing are offered:

• RETREAT CENTER:  Newer construction rooms are available for double or triple occupancy with a 3-night stay only. Linens and towels included. (Typically sells out in the first two weeks of registration.)
  
• RUSTIC CABINS:  Free-standing cabins house 6 people with one shared bath. Available for 3, 2 or 1 night stays. Please bring your own linens and towels.
• Each registrant must submit an individual registration. Persons wishing to room together must list their roommates on their registration form, register for the same nights as all other roommates, and all roommates register within one week of each other. We will do our very best to honor roommate requests, but there are no guarantees.

FOOD AND BEVERAGES:

• Camp Burton serves great food in a lovely dining hall overlooking beautiful Quartermaster Harbor. Special meal options include: VEGETARIAN, VEGAN, DAIRY-FREE and GLUTEN-FREE, and MUST be ordered at registration. Other special meal requests are not available.
• You are welcome to bring your own food; however, no cooking facilities are available. Food is allowed in the rooms and the spinning hall.
