Gleek Retreat

What IS Gleek Retreat?

We get that question quite often. The name is intriguing but not 100% defining. So, I thought I would share a little bit more about what Gleek Retreat is to those who have not had the privilege of experiencing it yet!

Gleek Retreat, in the most simplest of definitions, is a conference. A conference for bloggers. Created, organized, and executed by two fellow bloggers.  Satisfied? {I didn’t think so}

The truth is, Gleek Retreat is much more than a conference. We like to refer to it as an experience. After all, what our attendees take away from their weekend at Gleek Retreat is much more than a few business cards and a page of notes.

It all starts with the location. We have taken our “conference” outside of the typical, stuffy conference centers and nestled it inside a B&B/Retreat Center. From the minute our attendees arrive, they feel like they have been swept away but still with the comforts of home {minus the laundry, kids, or need to do the dirty dishes}. Networking, conversations, learning, and teaching all happen while sitting in the coziness of a living room, sharing a glass of wine, or enjoying a scenic view of the river.

Next, we add in the attendees themselves. They are a diverse group of elite bloggers from around the country. Each with their own area of expertise, all with something amazing to offer the other attendees.

During the weekend, attendees will chat with leading speakers in social media and business during our Group & Breakout Sessions and will share their own knowledge during our Workshops.

And, to top it all off, we give our attendees unique experiences. In the past we have mixed in body paint, photo booths, a dinner cruise, facials, and massages. This year, well, we are excited about the events we have in store for our 2012 attendees!

Sounds amazing, doesn’t it?
