Four spots are reserved for members who have never attended a Stay At Home Retreat.

Once 20 names are drawn, then the remainder are drawn for a wait list. An email is sent, within two days, to the successful members with a date when payment is due.

Another email is sent to the members on the wait list informing them where they are on the list.
