March 2016 SGNScoops Magazine

Limited Availability While Supplies Last

DOUGLASVILLE, GA, March 8, 2016 – Brian Free & Assurance (BFA) announce today that the “VIP Event Packages” for their upcoming fall Unashamed Fan Retreat at Lifeway’s Ridgecrest Conference Center in North Carolina are sold out. Due to demand, a very limited amount of Event Passes are being released for fans who want to attend this exclusive weekend with the Dove Award winning artist October 14 – 16, 2016. The Event Pass will allow fans to stay off campus yet still be a part of this monumental event, celebrating a first in the group’s 22 year history.

Group owner Brian Free states, “We could never have anticipated our VIP Packages selling so quickly. Even the staff at Ridgecrest didn’t expect our packages to sell out until July of this year. We are releasing a limited amount of off campus event passes for those who want to be a part of this special moment in our history but were unable to secure a VIP Event Package. Lodging is available less than two miles from Ridgecrest, so those who purchase an Event Pass can stay off campus and still be a part of this unique weekend together.”

The off campus Unashamed Fan Retreat Event Passes are available online at http://www.bfafanretreat.com. Only 100 event passes are being made available online. Event Pass holders will receive reserved seats to attend all concert sessions on campus, a commemorative tee shirt and wristband, enjoy group activities and experience some special surprises first hand. The Event Pass also gives access to recreational activities and hiking trails on Ridgecrest’s 1300 acre campus. Annette Frisby of Ridgecrest states, “Ridgecrest is delighted to have Brian Free & Assurance as part of our fall calendar! They will bring an excitement to this Spirit-filled place in the Blue Ridge mountains!”

Unlike a homecoming or three day event with multiple artists, the Unashamed Fan Retreat will solely feature Brian Free and Assurance with unique day and night time activities. A special feature during concert times will be a live band. Brian shares, “We have a special weekend planned for everyone and want to keep the event small so we can enjoy it with our friends. We are going to interact and spend time together as we take in the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains this autumn.”

The campus at Ridgecrest encompasses 1,300 acres and is conveniently located just east of Asheville, North Carolina, less than a day’s drive from over 15 states. Ridgecrest Account Manager Annette Frisby states, “Ridgecrest is delighted to have Brian Free & Assurance as part of our fall calendar!

A special feature during concert times will be a live band, with Brian’s oldest son, Ricky, playing drums. Brian shares, “When we were planning this retreat, we didn’t want an event that people would come to and just be sung at – yes, we are going to sing – but more importantly, we want to interact and spend time with our fans.”
