It has been a while since I've posted, and I promise I'll post explaining why I've been on hiatus. But when my buddy Sam Stokes, Academic Evangelist at Microsoft told me about this event, I had to spread the word. Come out, its FREE ~~as in beer~~!

Students at California State University, Fullerton have put together a short game camp to show off their work this year in game design.

· A person who attends this camp will know how to use FREE tools to design video games that can run on the PC or the XBOX 360 at the end of the 3 hours of sessions.

Note: Creator’s club required for XBOX 360, but the design tools are free) This is age appropriate for high school students 8-12^th grade, and 11^th graders who will be deciding on what school to attend, may want to see this, CSUF is the ONLY Cal State school with a FULL game design curriculum in place, all the way through the Master’s program.

· If you have students or if you would like to learn more, please contact Sam Stokes at 949.637.5736 directly.

· If you are attending, please use the click to attend site: http://www.clicktoattend.com/?id=118410

· This is important so that the students have some knowledge of how many folks will be attending, but not required.

· Invite your customers, friends and family

· Unfortunately there will be no food due to the use of computer labs ~~*I thought this was supposed to prepare you for the real world*~~ for the sessions.

CSU Fullerton requests that HS students under 16 bring ~~your fake IDs~~ their parents.
