SOYO Retreat

SAVE THE DATE

January 12-15, 2026

Hilton Garden Inn, 815 East Mall Dr., Rapid City

January's chilly weather invites us to settle in and accomplish great new (and old) quilts at our annual winter SOYO (sew-on-your-own) Retreat. It is always fun to see what all of us are up to. Gather your pins, rulers, scissors, fabric and machine and join us for a weekend of fun.

We will be at a new location this year at the Hilton Garden Inn. 

Doors will open on Monday, January 12, at 10:00 am. There is absolutely no early setup.  Doors will be open at 7:00 am, Tuesday - Thursday and will be closed each night at 11:00 pm. 

Cutting stations and irons/ironing boards will be provided. Bring your own extension cord or power strip, rulers, and rotary cutters. Be careful how much you bring; space is limited. Some areas in the room may be chilly, so wear layers.  

Registration will open on November 4 at 7:00 AM

The registration fee is $75 for members and $85 for non-members. Only members can register prior to December 1; after that registration will be open to anyone.  $10 of the registration fee is non-refundable; additional refunds will be given according to the cancellation policy below.

Massage

Sitting at a sewing machine so long can make your shoulders ache. A massage therapist will be available on Tuesday and Wednesday; $26 for 20 minutes (includes tax). Sign up for a time when you check in.

Meals

Snacks and coffee will be provided each day. Lunch is on your own at your choice of local restaurants. 

Breakfast is available from The Garden Grill at the Hilton daily from 6:00-10:00 am. Dinner is available from 5:00-9:00 pm.

Those needing hotel rooms should make their own reservations. No discounts are being offered for SOYO participants.
