To receive the conference rate, hotel reservations must be made by

with the OASFAA group.
 
 
The conference theme this year is "Get Your Kicks Traveling Down Route
66".
 
Our Thursday evening entertainment and meal will be at the Incredible
Pizza Company.  They have great food and fun for all ages and it is like
taking a step back in time.  Each OASFAA member will receive a $20 gift
card which will include an All-You-Can Eat buffet and drink plus $17 for
games. 
 
The buffet includes a pizza bar, salad bar, pasta bar, dessert bar and
soft drinks.  The games vary in cost and include Mini-Golf along Route
66, bumper cars, go-kart races, bowling, video games and arcade games. 
There is the Starlight Drive-In which is a large dining room and is set
up like being at the drive-in.  This room has been reserved for OASFAA
members from 6-9 p.m.  You may eat your dinner and then watch "Oklahoma"
on the big screen TV for those who may not want to play games.
 
There will be 2 buses that will pick us up in front of the Clarion
Convention Center.  For those who ride the bus and don't wish to stay
all evening, the buses will make a shuttle run back to the Clarion
Convention Center around 7:30pm.  The bus capacity is 114 and is
first-come, first-served.  For those who would rather drive, Incredible
Pizza is only about 7 miles north of the hotel at 5833 NW Expressway.
 
More details will be available in your packets.  In the meantime, you
may view the website at www.incrediblepizza.com!
 
The conference committee has been hard at work putting together a
conference that everyone will enjoy.  Alicia Smith, Program Chair, and
her committee are putting the finishing touches on the program and that
will be available on the web very soon.  Janie Prior is our
Entertainment Chair and, as you can tell from the information about The
Incredible Pizza Company, she is doing a great job.  Tasha Casey and
Carol Stanfield are Co-Chairing the Local Arrangements committee and you
will be very pleased with what they have done.  Both the meal selections
and the table decorations are great!
 
We will again this year be collecting donations for our service
project, Citizens Caring for Children.  I will send out more information
soon as to what things are most needed for the children this year.
 
More to come...
 
See you at the conference!
