Ignite your creative spirit with DevoFest! This powerful three-day conference (June 17,18,19, 2011 ) will encourage youth ages 7-17 to discover and develop their interest and talents in film, music and print. Workshops include: novel writing, graphic-novel creation, acting, film production, script-writing, story telling, the production of musical videos, creative cooking, drama, science exploration, and suspense-filled adventure walks where we’ll explore the scary and fun facts about nature. (Bring your bear whistle!)

Held on the grounds of the LifeWay Ridgecrest Conference Center, nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, this sprawling 1,300 acre campus offers hiking trails, scenic brooks and ample opportunities to spend time with God in His Creation. Nature walks, laser tag, science experiments, cooking “clashes” and skits are just a few of the activities included in the curriculum. Saturday evening we’ll enjoy a late night marshmallow melt, along with FunFight Night where EVERYONE gets messy.

Beginning Friday afternoon, teen, tweens, middle-graders and younger will mingle with and learn from professional actors, top-selling recording artists and best-selling authors in an intimate classroom setting. Parents will learn the importance of teaching and encouraging their children to create within a Christian World View.

DevoFest has a program fee of only $85 per student, which includes all sessions and breaks. A meal package is also available for on-campus dining covering all meals from Friday evening, through Sunday lunch. Convenient, on-campus lodging is available at Ridgecrest. Deluxe Room Rate: $90 per night, per room and kids stay free when accompanied by an adult.

As part of our writers’ contest, one lucky youth will receive a book contract!

Light the fuse that will ignite your passion and change the world for Christ! Join us June 17-19, 2011 as we rock the mountain… and the world!

$85 for three nights and two days of creative fun! Space limited.  For reservations call: 800-588-7222
