The smashing success of the recent OWAC Spring Conference, held at Big Bear Lake, California, gave those attending plenty to create stories around for publication. Several attendees have already had their stories published with many more to follow. The event was exceptional, with our hosts providing a glimpse into the mountain life at a cherished California resort community.

Board Member elections were held at the conference and the results can be found in our newsletter.

Our efforts to settle upon a venue for the 2022 OWAC Fall Conference continue with three locations in the mix.

Members are encouraged to send a note to me here at Editor@OWAC.org with any viable contacts that might be well served by hosting an upcoming conference.

Get out and enjoy the summer, especially on this 4th of July holiday, and throughout the coming months, then share your stories with us all by posting to the website. It is easy to post with just a click of the “SUBMIT A POST” button on the home page.

Making the Outdoor California experience memorable and rewarding for all is the goal of OWAC and with your participation we can continue to build on our enduring 35-year legacy.

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.
