More Information About the Retreat

For the fourth Gregath retreat, we decided to go from woods to waves! 2003, 2005, and 2007 were great times, but feedback was that it was a little bit too rustic. For 2009, a great time is planned on the shores of Grand Lake of the Cherokees in wonderful Grove, Oklahoma. Stonebrook Inn was chosen for it's location, size, and great people. The friendly staff and daily maid service will make the stay much more "user friendly" than past retreats where genealogists not only had to make their own bunks, but bring all their linens as well.

The Inn is a two story, outer entrance, facility where you can enjoy the walk on the terrace, and the trip poolside (already secured for the winter in October) to arrive at the spacious lobby where complementary drinks are on hand at all times. Stonebrook also puts on a wonderful breakfast where attendees can continue to network with other genealogists and writers, or "cast their nets" and make new friends with other hotel guests.

Our retreat will be taking over a hotel suite for registration, lectures, workshops, door prizes, entertainment, snacks, lunch, dinner and optional breakfast seating. Part of a retreat is not feeling "like a number". To this end, there will be no more than 48 attendees at this retreat. The total of 48 will include any learners who have chosen to attend various lectures "a la carte", as well as full package attendees.

This retreat should appeal to genealogist/family historians and writers of all types. No early enrollment for a given lecture is needed - unless a la carte is planned. Pick and choose what sessions are right for you - or stay in your room: organizing your research or getting some writing time in. Click here for current programming information.

Package standard package fee of $205, is available until October 1, 2009, or until space lasts. A $60 single supplement is available, and triple and quad occupancy discounts (bring your own roommates) are also possible.

A la carte tuition is available for any session at the cost of $20.00 each. Admission includes tuition for that session and one name tag (no matter how many sessions you buy). Check in at the door to the meeting room to register and get your name tag. If you have lots of interests, it may quickly become economical to get the whole package and not use it all.
