Spring is rolling along, and summer is just around the corner. Our OWAC Spring conference commences next week on May 10, 2022, at Big Bear Lake, California and will be an excellent opportunity for attendees to get out and enjoy the outdoor mountain life.

Awards season is upon us and Excellence in Craft Award winners will be announced at the conference. Our high school writing and photography competition, the Pat Vachini Scholarship program, has concluded with a record number of entrants and winners.

Also happening at the OWAC Spring Conference, your OWAC Board of Directors elections will be held to fill open slots on the board. If you are attending and wish to be on the board, be ready to throw your hat into the ring.

If you are not attending the conference and wish to participate on the board send a note to me here at Editor@OWAC.org and we will put your name on the ballot.

There are possible OWAC Fall conference venues in discussion at this time and announces will be forthcoming.

Keep getting the story told, making the Outdoor California experience memorable and rewarding for all.

About

Bob Semerau

My many years running our own business gives me a unique perspective on managing projects and creating effective programs. Passionate about fishing, I have been a staff writer for Western Outdoor News (WON) for over 20-years. Getting out on numerous WON fishing charters off-shore along the southern California coast, exploring Alaska and Mexico, and finding hidden gems like Bishop and Auburn for wild trout, makes it worth the effort. Writing about the outdoors led me to a mutually beneficial relationship with the professional members of OWAC. As Executive Director, I work to support the members of the organization and achieve their mission to tell stories of the great outdoors, which has been truly rewarding for me both personally and professionally.
