+swlovinist Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) I am happy to announce the 6th Annual Cowlitz Gamers for Kids Charity Videogame show to help raise funds for the Childrens Justice and Advocacy Center(CJAC). Over the five shows, the show has helped raise over $24,500 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. We have moved the show this year to a wonderful venue. The show will be on Saturday, March 28, 2015 at the Cowlitz County Regional Conference Center in Longview WA. 1900 7th Ave Longview, WA. The event will be from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Directions: http://www.thecenterofthenorthwest.com/directions.html This years event 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 $5, although we invite you to contribute more if you can! All admission goes straight to the non profit CJAC, which will be present at the show to answer further questions about how they service the community. Cowlitz County Conference Center1900 7th AvenueLongview, WA 98632 What Can you Expect?Over 30 vendors from around the Northwest will be present.

+swlovinist Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) The show exclusives have been completed and are ready for the show. A special thanks to Theloon and Retroscribe for donating the roms for the event. Both versions of the roms donated are custom, unreleased, and exclusive to the show. There also will be a very special silent auction version of Catacombs of Chaos with a custom 2600.
