Celebrate the Journey with Apologia Live!

Last July, I shared about a luncheon that I attended in Baltimore with the ladies from the Apologia Live Retreats.  It was a great time of fellowship with other homeschool moms (who are in the trenches just like me) and refreshment (for me, personally).  At that time, I mentioned that I would be giving away a ticket to an upcoming Apologia Live event.  And guess what?  Now is the time!

This year’s Apologia Live theme is Celebrate the Journey - - -

Celebrate the Journey of homeschooling, wifehood, and being a mom during the good times, the bad times and yes, even the ugly times.  Join us as we look at the scriptures and seek encouragement from veteran homeschool moms on how to Celebrate the Journey!

Apologia Live invites you to a retreat designed to encourage and support homeschool moms.

Meetings will be held this spring in Baltimore, MD (March 9 – 10) and Atlanta, GA (March 23 – 24).

I have one regular ticket to give away to one of my readers!  This ticket is valued at $115 and includes the Live Event only (6 General Sessions and 2 Prayer Sessions on Friday afternoon and evening, starting at 3:30 pm and running through Saturday at 4:15 pm. The Retreat price also includes lunch on Saturday.)  Hotel reservations and the additional Nuts & Bolts pre-Live session will be the winner’s responsibility.  Winner will have their choice of attending either the Baltimore or Atlanta event. 

If you are looking for refreshment, encouragement, and fellowship, I’d highly encourage attending Apologia Live!  I have never attended before – but I’ve spent time with some of the speakers and know them personally and I’ve been listening to past Live events on cd. 

If you’d like to register on your own, you are more than welcome to do so.  They are offering a great Buy 2,  Get 1 Free Special.

FYI: I plan to attend the event in Baltimore and would love to meet you!

Now, on to the giveaway . . .

I want to keep this simple so we’ll just have one mandatory entry – simply leave a comment to this post telling me why you would like to win this ticket to Apologia Live and which location you will be attending if you win. 

If you’d like more opportunities to win, you can choose from the following list (please leave a separate comment for each on that you do do):

I will leave this contest open for 2 weeks and will select a winner on Monday, January 16th.

NOTE: The ticket for this giveaway is being provided by Apologia Live. I will also be attending the event for free as a gift to me in exchange for helping to promote the event.  I do not promote anything on my blog that I don’t personally believe in.

I have never been to an Apologia Live event, but I've heard such encouraging things said about them; so, I'd love a chance to attend in Atlanta.

Thanks for hosting this giveaway, Heidi.

Continued Blessings to you and yours,

PK

I visited the Apologia Live Blog!  Did you know that you can get all the sessions from the 2009 Walking in the Light theme year there?  I'm sure you did, but I didn't, so...thanks!  =)

Blessings,

PK

I already follow Apologia on facebook.  I participated in their facebook party, in December, I think, and won a Honey Baked Turkey, just in time for holiday celebrations!

Blessings,

I would attend the Atlanta conference. I use many of the Apologia's material in my homeschooling. I have several of the Mom resources as well. To hear these wonderful ladies in person would be very uplifting and renewing to continue this journey of homeschooling that God has called our family to do. What a treat it would be to hear Pam Tebow!!!!!

Heidi,
When I first joined the crew, you immediately invited me to an Apologia Live even that was occurring in Baltimore. I just couldn't do it, just finding out about it, because I needed to know more in advance to make arrangements.

Now this one I've known about since then, and I've had the March 2012 Baltimore Apologia Live conference in my mind, in my plans, in my calendar, told my husband, cause I thought Crew was going to send me. I live close enough that I planned to drive each day and just pay for parking. And now I don't know what Crew will do.

I wasn't saving money to do this, just clearing my schedule so that I could go. So, yes, I'd love it if I were chosen.

I just visited the Apologia Live Blog. I like that they want to pamper me. But more than anything else, I like the possibility of going to a real home school conference. I haven't been to a real homeschool conference since CHEC when I lived in Colorado in 1993. The Frederick MD homeschool event is not a conference, and the HEAV in VA and the conference in PA are so far I'd have to stay in hotels, and we just haven't had it in the budget.

I'd love to go to the Baltimore conference.

I would love to attend the one in Atl. I have never been to an Apologia Live event and would love to hear some of the awesome speakers!

I live in Atlanta so that would be very convenient!  I have never been to an Apologia Live event and would love to have the chance.  Thanks!
