1. Catch a Glimpse Retreat

    February 5, 2010 by Johnny Williams

      Hello, my name is Johnny Williams, owner of Catch-A-Glimpse Retreat Center. The inspiration for our venue’s unique name came to me while at a church service back in 1995 when the minister urged us to take a minute to “catch a glimpse” of God’s goodness and mercy.  

    I was working in radio advertising sales at that time. My wife and I were also camp directors at a church camp in Colorado for about six years which served as the catalyst to look for property to host events. 
    We found the perfect place near Cashion, Oklahoma – 160 acres with a 4,000 square foot Colorado style log home which we converted to a daytime meeting and retreat center. The central point is the 900 square recreation area which we call Antlers Room. There are also several break-out rooms and a game room. Our lovely outdoor areas are available for fishing, archery, BB gun fun, canoeing, hay rides, treasure hunts, water balloon launching or just enjoying a bonfire cookout with smores and hot dogs.   Our 2,400 square foot barn serves as a multi-purpose building which you are welcome to decorate to suit your event. Catch-A-Glimpse Retreat Center is within minutes of Edmond, Deer Creek, Piedmont, and Northwest Oklahoma City.

    If Catch-A-Glimpse Retreat Center sounds like the perfect place for church and school events, you’d be right. But, we also host all types of events here, including weddings, family reunions, graduations, fall festivals and corporate meetings with team building exercises.

    At Catch-A-Glimpse Retreat Center, you may bring your own food for your event and are welcome to use the community gas grill.   If you prefer, you can choose a caterer of your choice. Feel free to provide your own event curriculum or we’ll be happy to help you develop one. We can easily accommodate up to 100 guests indoors and more than 175 outdoors. The center can be rented for a full or half-day with a two-hour minimum.
    If you’re seeking a place for your event that’s a wonderful retreat from the ordinary, please consider Catch-A-Glimpse Retreat Center in Cashion Oklahoma where our goal is always to provide a quality, enjoyable and safe event experience for you, your family and guests.

    Fabulous Fair Faire! 
     
    Everyone agrees that the Oklahoma State Fair Park is famous for its food, but if you’re only thinking corn dogs and funnel cakes, your are in for a welcome surprise- especially if you are planning a special event. 

    Dan Parker, the executive chef of Ovations Foodservice at Oklahoma’s State Fair Park is originally from Vancouver, Washington where he operated a home style deli restaurant for five years.  Then after, Chef Dan became executive chef at a country club, and for fifteen years he catered on site events of all types, parties, meetings, receptions, reunions, and golf tournaments.  In 2006, Ovations sent Chef Parker to supervise the catering for a quarter horse show at the State Fair Park, and was then offered a full- time position as the State Fair Park’s Executive Chef.
