Conference Highlights (an occasional series)

Highlight ​#1
​Fish Fry & Bake Sale
​Tuesday, 6:00

Come for the fish, stay for the fun! The Miami and Afton Masonic Lodges are cooking up a feast for us. Local farmers, bakers, and jelly makers have donated their homemade and homegrown food for a silent auction.

Joe Johnson is cooking, Harell Post is auctioneering, and Solace Unplugged will offer live music.

Talk with your neighbors, chat with our guest speakers, learn, and have fun with your family!

Come, join us.

​     We are very excited about the 2017 conference. As we work to bring everything together, we feel something electric, almost magical, in the air. This conference will be something special, something unique. We cannot wait to sit beside you as we learn from the wisdom, heart, and art  this year's presenters will share. There is so much to learn. Check out our latest draft agenda and see for yourself. 
​     If you haven't already registered, please visit our registration page and sign up to attend the conference. While you're there, register for the Toxic Tour of the Tar Creek Superfund Site or a walk along the creek. And, of course, don't forget about the fish fry and bake sale Tuesday night!

L.E.A.D. Agency depends on donations.
