Conservation Federation of Missouri!

This year's Fall Conference will be held September 17-19 at Camp Clover Point, Lake Ozark State park. Our focus will be on Missouri State Parks for the entire weekend.

Arrivals and getting reacquainted with old friends will commence on Friday afternoon. After a wonderful dinner provided by Gourmet Guide (the Boessen family), we have a very special evening program. First John Cunning will introduce us to the mission of Division of State Parks; this is usually the highlight of training for new interpreters at State Parks and available to those employees attending the Jaeger Academy. Next John will present "Missouri State Parks History," a fantastic program normally exclusive to the indoctrination of State Parks' camp-ground hosts and employees. The capstone to our first evening will be Director Bill Bryan's presentation "The Future of Missouri State Parks." Don't miss ANY of these presentations, but be sure to be there for Director Bryan's!

After a restful night on site, Saturday will be devoted to taking a work project at Lake Ozark Lake State Park from start to finish. This will be a don't-miss opportunity to work and have fun with State Parks staff and volunteers. Come lend a hand!

On Sunday morning, Alison Dubbert will present "The CCC in Missouri State Parks" to recount the storied history and enduring performances of the Civilian Conservation Corps. Next will be a presentation by David Kelly and Bill Bryan on "SPYC," The State Parks Youth Corps, the program employing 1,300 youth in Missouri State Parks this summer.
