2016 Spinning Class Poll

Hiya! We are in the process of confirming the location/dates/teachers for Geeky Puffin Knit Palooza 2016. We plan to announce everything no later than mid-March (but hopefully before then).

We are working with 4 amazing teachers about offering 8 total classes at the retreat. Each attendee will be able to take 2 classes.

We'd like to offer a spinning class, but we need your input on what type of class you might be interested in.

Responding to this poll in no way obligates you to sign up for the retreat or take the spinning class we offer. Your response will be anonymous unless you tell us your name in the section for additional comments.

Please take a couple of minutes and respond to the spinning class poll at http://goo.gl/forms/SBKmlQStzU

Can't wait to share GPKP 2016 news with you soon!
Happy Knitting!
