The Central Local Retreat will be held from June 9 until June 10. The retreat will return to Deer Creek.

As well as plenty of time for your team to work on your 2024-25 Local Association needs, we will also have sessions based on your needs.

* Some examples from past retreats:
* Bargaining Q & A with OEA Organizing
* C&B work session/sample language
* ESP specific ideas
* Election Committee prep
* Membership (Back to school, new employee orientation, engagement ideas, building capacity- building the bench)
* Communications or Social (Updating webpages, social media guidelines)

We will provide lunch and dinner plus networking on the 9th and breakfast and lunch on the 10th.

This retreat is for teams only. Team members must register on our website by May 8th. Central will reimburse for hotel rooms on a shared occupancy basis. Instructions for booking your hotel room will be provided upon registration.
