The 2019 Annual OR-PRIMA Conference will be held Occtober 2-4 at Salishan Resort in Gleneden Beach.  We will open our conference this year with Stop the Bleed training and the first 75 attendees will receive a bleeding control kit.  Our keynote will teach you the key factors and tools for building a resilient life.  The remaining exciting sessions include: Leading for Influence, an ADA panel, Mental Health Crisis (split into two sessions; one for local government and one for schools), Opioid Crisis, Tipping Point Resilience Earthquake Preparedness, and a workers compensation and employment legal update.

Thursday night's dinner and entertainment is included as part of the registration and we will be bringing back the ever popular casino night. 

We will again be hosting the annual fun run/walk which will take place Thursday morning at 6:30 am.  This non-competitive 3-mile run/walk will get you physical and mentally ready for the sessions on Thursday as you take in the beautiful scenery of the Oregon coast.  Meet at the registration desk outside the Salal Room at 6:30 am to participate.  No need to sign up in advance.

Guests

Spouses and guests of registered attendees may attend Thursday evening's reception, dinner, and entertainment for a fee of $50.  All guests must be registered and are required to wear a name badge to participate in the festivities.

Registration Cancellation Policy

If you are unable to attend, we encourage you to send a substitute.  If you cannot send a substitute and your registration was paid, OR-PRIMA will refund 100% of your registration fee if written notice is received by September 18, 2019.  If your cancellation is received after that date the refund will be reduced by 50% and no refund will be given for cancellations received after September 25, 2019.  This is necessitated by the requirement that we pay for the meal head count we report to the venue prior to the conference.  If your registration was not paid and you cancel after September 25, OR-PRIMA will bill the balance due.  Please send cancellation notices to Treasurer Rob Gabris.
