Dear South Central Region Conservation District Directors, Employees, and Partners,

Welcome to Oklahoma! OACD is very excited to host our South Central Region colleagues and friends.

This years regional meeting will highlight the successes of conservation in Oklahoma and Indian country as we immerse ourselves in the rich culture and history of the Osage Nation.

We look forward to two and half days of business meetings, tours, and fellowship. New this year we will be conducting the business meetings Sunday afternoon so please plan travel accordingly. On Monday we will tour the Nature Conservancy Tallgrass Prairie followed by a lunch at the renowned Pioneer Woman restaurant in Pawhuska.

As always, we'll have excellent networking opportunities for you to visit with local, state, and national eaders in conservation.

We hope that you will join us on September 22nd, 23rd, and 24th 2024. The meeting will be held at the Osage Nation Casino located at 951 West 36th Street North, Tulsa, OK.

Bring your boots and safe travels!

Thank you,

Joe Caughlin, OACD President
