2025 Quilter's Road Rally Bus Trip

BEEP BEEP!
We will depart Richmond 7:00am on Tuesday July 22th and travel to 10 unique sewing stores and quilt shops for 2 days on a tour of independent retailers in VA, MD, & PA. If you joined us last year, we are visiting 6 of the same stores and 4 new.
We have contracted with Premiere #1 Limousine Service for our Motor Coach.
This bus trip is in conjunction with independent quilt shops participating in the 2025 All Mid-Atlantic Shop Hop and is sponsored by Bobbin & Bolt and Byrne Sewing. Our route is based on shops between our two host stores and is not in any correlation with the regions established by the All Mid-Atlantic Shop Hop (as this event was planned months before regions were released.)
We will spend the night at the Hampton Inn Bowie, MD. Room rate is included in your registration fee. There are no single-occupancy rooms or optional up-charged for private rooms. If you are traveling along, you will be bunked with another Road Rally Rider.
The bus will return to Richmond at midnight the night of Wednesday, July 23rd.
Your hotel room, 2 dinners, breakfast, and bus fare are all included in your registration. We will have games, goody bags, commemorative T-shirts, and such a great time!
We will stop for lunch each day. Please bring lunch money as lunches are not provided. Breakfast options will be available through the hotel or adjacent to hotel.
All Registrations will give us their information via the Road Rally Info Form. Please do this after registration, thank you!
Road Rally Info Forms without payment will not be considered as valid attendees. We must have record of payment that matches info form for your seat on the bus to be valid.
Why Double Occupancy?
Well in order to plan this - we had to rent an entire hotel! Our bus from Richmond and the bus from Byrne Sewing are rendezvousing together for the night in Bowie, MD. We have to book two riders to a room so that we can all fit at the same hotel. At this time, there is not a pricing option for 1 person to have their own room. Please note any requests for handicapped accommodations when you fill out the Google Form after registration.
Hotel Room at the Hampton Inn Bowie, MD is included in your registration.
