We encourage you to attend the first ever CGDC Winter Retreat, February 5-6-7 of 2009 to be held in the mountains at the 5 Rock Ranch near Yamhill, Oregon.

Registration is open today! You can register online from the main CGDC website, http://cgdc.org

Additional notes:

1) The Winter Retreat covers 2.5 days and 2 nights, including meals. Extra days and meals are available for an additional fee. Please see the registration form for details.

2) We are extending an invitation to speakers to contribute to the event activities. The theme for this Winter Retreat is "ENCOURAGEMENT" please keep that in mind when planning your speeches. Please pray about it, and if you feel led to speak, let me know! I'll put you on the schedule. We would like to offer 4 tracks = Business, Tech, Creative, Spiritual. Which track can you contribute to?

3) There is a discount for registering early! Please register as soon as possible to get this benefit. And also be aware that there is an absolute deadline to register for the Winter Retreat of January 2. Don't miss it! http://cgdc.org

4) We are actively seeking Sponsors for the Winter Retreat. If your company, or someone you know would like to be a sponsor, please have them register from the website, or contact me or Tim Emmerich directly. Benefits to sponsoring the event are outlined on the registration form.


This CGDC Winter Retreat is supplemental to the annual Summer Christian Game Developer's Conference held in Portland, Oregon. The anticipated date for the Summer CGDC 2009 is the first weekend of August, so be looking for that too! We hope you will be able to attend both conferences, but if one date doesn't work for you then please plan to attend the other! Be ENCOURAGED!

God bless you,

I'm sorry you won't be able to come Michael, it would have been nice to see you. We're doing the Winter Retreat a little different than the Summer Conference. I hope everyone has fun! Definitely expect to see you in August!

Blessings to you,
