Where do you go?  How do you get there?

If you registered to attend the OSTA Honor’s Reception Friday night, it will be held at the Oklahoma Energy Resources Board offices at 500 NE 4th Street in downtown Oklahoma City. The reception, sponsored by OERB and Pearson, begins at 6:30 PM and offers wine and heavy hors d’oeuvres to attendees.  A Google map to OERB is located here (http://goo.gl/maps/ZLn3U.)

 

All Saturday events take place in Howell Hall at the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond.  A Google map to the UCO campus is located here. (http://goo.gl/maps/YHKdN).

 

A revised parking map of the UCO Campus is found HERE.  Saturday is Homecoming for all of us ex-Bronchos and the parking lots closest to Howell Hall are reserved for parking the floats prior to the Homecoming Parade in downtown Edmond.  The revised map indicates the closest parking lots which are actually EAST of the Nigh University Center.  Lots 13 and 10 are your best bet, turn North off of 2nd street, right up Garland Godfrey Drive.

 

The latest schedule of presentations is found HERE.  This is subject to change without notice, but add this pdf to the program on your i-Whatever and you’ll be good to go.

 

How about a copy of the Conference Program?

Get your copy HERE and either print it out or add this .pdf to your mobile device along with the schedule of presentations you just downloaded above.  You won’t find very many of these printed out at the conference.  We are moving as much as we can to a re-cycled electron format.
