2012 OFLA Conference

2012 OFLA 50th Anniversary Annual Conference

March 29-31

Sheraton Columbus Hotel at Capitol Square, Columbus, Ohio

Register Now at http://ofla.memberlodge.org/

Keynote Speaker: Toni Theisen

We have both workshops and sessions.  The workshops begin on Thursday and run through Saturday.  They are longer and more involved than the sessions.  You can tell if it is a workshop because there is an extra cost for the workshops.

There are also approximately 100 sessions that are included with the price of the conference.  Those sessions begin on Thursday and finish on Saturday afternoon.  You do not need to sign up for them, just go to the room assigned in the program and enjoy the speaker.  It helps to map out a plan in the morning.

We also have an awards luncheon on Saturday that is nice to go to.  You can meet teachers and talk over lunch.  There is also a box lunch, so if you are in a hurry on Friday, you can grab a quick lunch without leaving the hotel.

We look forward to seeing you in Columbus!
