Fall Workshop Registration Information

Greetings Area 3 GEMS Counselors!

Even though we are still in the midst of summer, it is time to start thinking about our GEMS Area 3 Fall Workshop! This year it will be held at Bellevue CRC on September 8. The details, information, and registration forms are on their way to you in the mail as of this morning! We are praying that each of you will be able to attend this very useful and inspiring workshop.

In case you don't get the snail mail or you want to mark your calendar now, here's the pertinent info:

Who: Area 3 GEMS Counselors
What: Fall Training Workshop
Where: Bellevue, CRC, Bellevue, WA
When: September 8, 2012, 8:30 am - 3:45 pm
Why: To learn and be encouraged, inspired, and refreshed!
Cost: $30/person
How: Fill out a registration form and mail it with payment to Julie Ball, 313 Christopher Lane, Everson, WA 98247. Forms are available to print at the top of the right hand column of this blog!

In case you want to know a little more about these training workshops, GEMS has put together a fun little 3-minute video for you. Click here (http://vimeo.com/40026712) to watch it and learn more about what happens at Fall Workshop!

If you haven't yet signed up to receive email updates on this blog, please go ahead and do so by entering your email address in the window on the right. This way you'll stay up to date on GEMS information and receive theme-related devotionals from Lenae Bulthuis, our GEMS Training Manager.

If you are a Club Coordinator and you know that you have new counselors who just signed up to help you out this year, we definitely DO NOT have their emails and addresses yet. Please be sure to give them each all the information about our Fall Workshop and feel free to print and make as many copies of the registration form as you need.

Finally, registration forms are due August 15. This is the date we need to have registrations by so that we can order materials. If you anticipate having more counselors attend, but you just don't know who they are by that time, please shoot me an email and we'll work it out. We want to have as many come as possible, but will just need a ballpark number in order to have enough supplies for everyone who attends.

We are looking forward to seeing many of you at our workshop in September! It's always great to reconnect and hear how things are going for you!

Blessings,
Julie Ball, Area Coordinator
Tami Cleveringa, Leadership Trainer
