Conference Agenda, Notes, and Announcements:

The draft conference agenda is now available for review.

Space is still available for more poster presentations. Send your poster title, author(s) and affiliations, and short (<200 word) abstract to richm@pdx.edu by October 6th for inclusion in the printed conference agenda.
Sponsorship opportunities available! Get a booth, registration fees for one attendee, and bonus advertising packages through Lake Wise, the Oregon Lakes Association's newsletter
**NEW** Past OLA President Steve Wille has generously donated a chance to win a fishing/boating trip for two on a Northwest Oregon/Southwest Washington river or estuary of your choice ~~in the Siuslaw Estuary on Sunday October 22nd~~. You now have an opportunity to decide where and when you would like to go fishing or exploring. Some options to consider: the fall fishery on Tillamook Bay, spring Chinook fishing on the Willamette, a Buoy 10 salmon trip on the lower Columbia River next August, or maybe a crabbing trip in a local estuary. Boat trip raffle tickets can be purchased for $5 at the conference on Friday October 20th or anytime before by contacting Theo Dreher (theo.dreher@oregonstate.edu). The raffle will be held Saturday, October 21 and all raffle proceeds will go towards OLA's student scholarship program.
Additional items including two travel packages to Chinook Winds Casino will be raffled off at the conference on Friday and Saturday .

Cancellation Policy: Registrations are fully refundable 15 days before event, minus a $10 or 3% processing fee whichever is greater. Refunds will not be available after this time.
