JOIN US FOR THE 2023 ANNUAL CONFERENCE
April 4 - 7
Riverhouse on the Deschutes Convention Center Bend, Oregon
Click here for an attendance roster as of 3.7.23
REGISTRATION NOW OPEN:
Members: $340 Non-members: $360 Registration will increase by $20 on March 20. Unfortunately once we submit the meal count to the conference center, we will not be able to issue refunds at that time. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes. If a refund is needed, please request it prior to Tuesday, March 28 and we'd be glad to refund the full amount.
LODGING:
Unfortunately, all rooms at The Riverhouse are now full, but see below for a couple other great options to choose from, both of which are walking distance to the Convention Center:
Red Lion 15 NE Butler Market Rd Bend, OR 97701 https://www.redlion.com/ 541-388-4114 Government Rate with ID at check in $115 plus tax for a King
Shilo Inn 3105 O.B. Riley Rd Bend, OR 97703 https://www.shiloinns.com Government Rate starting at $109 plus tax for a King
WEDNESDAY BEND NIGHT OUT:
Wednesday night there will be an optional Evening Out in Bend. The bus will drop guests off at a convenient location downtown and then shuttle them back to the Riverhouse at a couple different times in the evening. The shuttle is $10/person or $15/couple. If you have not already signed up for this, you will have an opportunity to do so at the conference check in table. Please note, we are doing things differently this year. Because of the size coach we have rented for the evening, we don't anticipate anyone waiting at the Riverhouse for a lift! We think this will provide conference attendees a moment reprieve to enjoy visiting with colleagues in comfort as they make their way to one of Bend's great eating and drinking establishments.

Topic: “The Impact of January 6th Plus Radically and Ethically Motivated Violent Extremists in Oregon” What does the threat of left wing vs. right wing domestic terrorism look like today in Oregon? From the summer of 2020, to Oregon Capitol and US Capitol incursions, to Jane's Revenge arsons and attacks on the power grid today, SAC Ramsey will discuss what the threat picture looks like presently, where it originated from and where it's going (and how Oregon law enforcement can work together to identify and disrupt the threat).

New Chiefs and Retired Members
As we prepare for the upcoming conference and finish completing the conference notebook, we want to make sure we haven't forgotten anyone. Here are the lists of retired members and new chiefs from April 2022 - April 2023. If you see any discrepancies, please let us know.

"ADDITIONAL TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES"
We're expanding our Training Center platform to include additional training opportunities, and we're excited to let you know!
|
We've added a package called "Additional Training Opportunities" to our online training center. This will contain information regarding training, seminars, and conferences NOT hosted by OACP that we think would benefit our members. Currently, there is information about the Law Enforcement Appreciation Retreat, Marriage Resiliency Retreat, and the NW Regional CIT Conference.
Keep checking back as we'll be updating this as training becomes available. If you know of any training you'd like us to promote on our Training Center, please send information our way! We love adding value to your OACP membership and we think this does just that!
On another note, we'd like to let you know that an additional video from the 2023 ELTS Conference - Violent Extremism in America - was just added to the General/Other package.
