RE: OACD Area V Meeting – Wednesday, November 2, 2022
Dear Area V Conservation District Directors, Conservation District Employees, NRCS Employees, and Partners,
On behalf of the Oklahoma Association of Conservation Districts Board of Directors, I’d like to invite you to attend the OACD Area V meeting on Wednesday, November 2, 2022 at the Kiamichi Technology Center, 107 S. 15th Street, Hugo, OK 74743
We are looking forward to seeing everyone this fall. The OACD Area Meetings are one of the two times per year where we can gather to share opportunities and challenges with each other.
Our agenda this year is designed to be more interactive with several options for small group discussions about important topics including the changes in the state legislature, climate and conservation, and why urban agriculture matters. As always, there will be important programmatic updates from our state partners at the Oklahoma Conservation Commission. We have included an agenda in your registration packet.
We do want to encourage you to invite your locally elected officials to attend. It is always a good idea to extend an invitation to them for the area meeting. It is one way that we can strengthen our relationship with our legislators and local officials.
The Area V meeting will be hosted by the Pushmataha Conservation District at the Kiamichi Technology Center 107 S. 15th Street, Hugo, OK 74743 . The in-person registration will open at 8:00 a.m. The meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. and end by 3:00 p.m.
Registration: The registration fee for in-person is $45. This includes donuts & coffee, lunch, and printed materials. NRCS employees will register through the state office. NRCS will be directly billed for attendees. Guests, spouses, youth contest winner attendees wishing to attend the lunch must pay $15.00. We must know in advance how many will be attending the luncheon. After October 20, 2022, no refunds will be made.
Please contact Sarah Blaney at sarahblaney@okconservation.org or 517-763-8609 with any area meeting questions.
Sincerely,
Bill Jordan President
