Hello Everyone!

I am sending this email out to see if anyone has any interest in attending
this year's Games for Health.

On Tuesday June 12, in Boston, MA Games for Health will be hosting Enabled
Play: The Fourth Annual Games Accessibility Day.

For 2012, Enabled Play is dedicating itself to generating a "briefing book"
on games accessibility which will be presented on June 13 and 14 to all
attendees which includes a cross-section of industry, health, and
professional leaders who are attending and speaking.  This includes the
conference keynotes: Microsoft's global lead on health, Bill Crounse,
 Reality is Broken author Jane McGonigal, and  Constance Steinkeuhler
Squire who is a Senior Policy Analyst at the White House Office of Science
& Technology Policy focusing on federal activity and policies regarding the
use of videogames to solve ongoing national challenges such as health,
education, science, and national security.

Eleanor and I are leading the charge here, but we are looking for others to
help as well.

*We currently have some tickets that we can offer to parties that are
interested in attending the Game Accessibility Day. If you are interested
in attending, please let me know! We'll see if we can get you a free
ticket. *

Travel and lodging aren't included.

Hope to see you there!
Thanks!
