Conference Committee The walk-through of the Eau Claire conference site was done June 6th.
The giveaway will be a thermos.
There will be polo shirts for sale at conference.
Conference costs will be higher this year due to WJOA having more tracks than previous years (17 this year).
There was discussion of issues/problems that have arisen with planning the joint conference. The possibility of a side-by-side conference in 2004 and a solo conference in 2005 were discussed. A motion was made to rescind the previous vote on holding a joint conference in 2005. After discussion, a vote was taken and passed. A motion was then made to have a solo conference in 2005. It was agree this would not preclude the Association from running a parallel conference with another organization. A vote was taken and the motion passed.
The committee has revised the evaluation for this year’s conference. The committee will need volunteers for the registration table and to introduce speakers.
Our conference is listed at the OJJDP web site under the Conference heading.
