The following is a template intended for announcing a weekend retreat.

Hello,

Capacity is limited so please register early.
You can register for the weekend retreat by emailing me directly

The cost of attending is expected to be $<<COST>>. If that cost makes the retreat less accessible for you, please pay what you can.
Payment will be due to me the week before the retreat.
