Due to facility & manpower issues, the NWODGA will not be able to hold our annual Educational Conference in February 2023. We are working on making adjustments so that we can continue to offer our wonderful conference in the upcoming years. Our hope is to have either a new Fall 2023 conference or return in February 2024.
The NWODGA board thanks you all for the many years of continued attendance and support. We hope to see you all together again for great learning soon!
