Men's Ox Roast - Ohio State CHOG

An announcement from Ohio State ministries of the Church of God:

The annual Men's Ox Roast & Retreat on September 11 & 12 promises to be one of the best ever with the theme of Change. Chaplain Barry Black, chaplain to the United States Senate, will be the speaker and the music will be done by Colonial City Quartet.

There is an early bird rate of $45 with the cutoff for this rate being this Saturday, August 15. To make advance registration easier, you may go to the new men's site at http://www.ohiochogmen.org/. Please check it out. On the site you can go to the tab Events Registration to register. Please note the instruction that you will still need to send your payment to Phil Day whose address is noted. After August 15 the registration increases to $55 so please get online and register today.

Your registration feel includes retreat lodging, the Friday night evening meal, bonfire and hotdogs on Friday, breakfast on Saturday, the ox roast on Saturday afternoon, plus the Friday and Saturday worship experiences. Lodging, meals, great worship and great fellowship and all for only $45 if you register by the Saturday. This makes this event probably one of the best deals to be found anywhere.
