Annual Section Training for Committee and Subsection Officers and Trustee Meeting

October 2-4 at Eagle Crest Resort

Section committee and subsection officer annual training takes place October 2-4 at Eagle Crest Resort in Redmond, Oregon.

This is the one training a year that provides you with the knowledge and tools to lead your committee and subsection. We have a block of rooms set aside at a discounted rate. Make your room reservation prior to September 9.

We kick off the meeting with a reception and dinner on Wednesday night, training all day Thursday and the Section Board of Trustees will meet Friday morning. We should wrap things up by noon on Friday.

This training is so important that we will even reimburse your travel and hotel costs to attend if your employer is unable to. You must attend through the Trustee Meeting Friday morning for reimbursement.
