Cowitz Gamers for Kids 2013

[swlovinist]

I am happy to announce the 4rd Annual Cowlitz Gamers for Kids Charity Videogame show to help raise funds for the Childrens Justice and Advocacy Center(CJAC). Over the last three years, the show has helped raise over $9,000 to the Childrens Justice and Advocacy Center (CJAC) and we're convinced we can do better this year with your help!

PRGE is once again absorbing much of the cost of putting on this show so that 100% of the admission will go directly to CJAC. It is CJAC's mission to provide children who have experienced sexual or physical abuse a coordinated community approach to investigation, prosecution and treatment that promotes their safety, healing, and well-being.

The show will be on Saturday, April 13, 2013 at the THREE RIVERS MALL in Kelso, WA. THIS YEARS EVENT WILL BE IN THE SAME MALL BUILDING WITH OVER 42,00 SQ FEET! Kelso is about 1 hour north of Portland or 2 hours south of Seattle on I-5. Doors open at 10:00 AM until 5:00 PM. Admission is a suggested donation of $5 to CJAC, although we invite you to contribute more if you can!

Three Rivers Mall
351 Three Rivers Drive
Kelso, Washington 98626

What Can you Expect?
The show will be held in THE SAME SPACE THIS YEAR this year, I am always looking for vendors. Like last year, it will feature classic video game vendors, a freeplay gaming arcade, a silent auction, retro videogame tournaments(with some prizes this year).

Expect a ton of good deals on classic video game merchandise including videogame systems, games, and accessories. In addition to outside video game vendors, there will be T-shirts and other merchandise specifically made for the event that will also be sold specifically to suport CJAC.

The event is child-friendly so please feel free to bring the entire family!

Further Announcements will be made, so stay tuned...

Can't wait! Kelso is a good start to our year. My girlfriend and I love attending and have a good time each year. We thank you for devoting so much of your time to putting on such a good show for such a good cause.

Show is getting near capacity for vendor spots. More vendors than last year! We still have a couple spots in the back, but we are pretty full with lots in store this year! Updates will happen closer to the show, but am getting excited for this great event. The show had some humble beginnings, but now is becoming a decent sized show with live music, and a whole lot of fun.

As one of the organizers with John, this year is going to be really fun with the new layout. More vendors around the Southwest WA and Oregon as well. I am donating for the Silent Auction an N64 Lighted Sign. All proceeds for Charity towards CJAC. We will be posting more as time goes on. Look for flyers if you live around the area. http://www.cowlitzgamers.moonfruit.c...xpo/4569688396
