    The Annual Conference has been postponed.

    Friends, what a difference 24 hours can make! The Conference Committee met today and decided to postpone the 2020 Annual Conference.

    At this time we do not intend to outright cancel the conference but instead will look for another date. We do not have a date yet. Our committee will take the next four weeks to listen to the recommendations from the Oregon Health Authority and Governor, CDC, and other health officials before deciding what our next step will be.

    Registration

    We're holding all registrations as they stand. Meaning if you are registered, you would still be registered for the conference when it is moved to new dates. This goes for exhibitors, school attendees, and speakers. You will have an opportunity to cancel registration with no penalty if the new dates don't work for you.

    For school attendees: If you would rather cancel your registration, you may by emailing osfma@osfma.org. We will not charge a cancellation fee and we will refund any fees paid.

    For exhibitors: You may cancel your registration by emailing osfma@osfma.org. However, there is no guarantee a space would be available once we announce a rescheduled show. We understand you may not be able to attend during the new dates so cancellation will be accepted without penalty once the new dates are announced. If you'd like to keep the booth you have and wait to see the outcome, we will maintain the exhibit hall as it is.

    If We Cancel

    Any fees you have paid will be returned upon a full cancellation of our conference.

    Over the last year, the OSFMA Board of Directors embarked on a restatement of the Association's Bylaws. Their intention was to update them for best practices and fix inconsistencies that arose from modifications made over the years.

    But perhaps the most exciting change to the Bylaws is the addition of a Partner Member position to serve on the Board of Directors. This position is the culmination of discussions about how to better involve OSFMA's Business Partners in the organization and is the start of their work to provide great resources, access to school members, and a greater community of people committed to the success of public and private schools in Oregon.

    Letters of Interest must be received by June 8, 2018. Visit the Partner Member page to find out more information and review the position responsibilities.
