2010 DARE International Conference

Any Ohio DARE Officer wishing to attend the 2010 DARE International Conference, who is not in need of hotel accommodations should contact Ms. Lucia Romero at 1.800.223.3273 or through the her email address of lucia.romero@dare.org for conference registration.

To All DAO Members,
Many of you have been contacting me and other DARE Association of Ohio Board members to ask about DAO’s plans for the DARE National Conference. After many discussions with DARE America to inquire into scheduling and to finalize plans, I can now fill you in on the July Conference and what DAOs plan will be within that conference.  DARE America is providing DAO with a meeting room to use for our Annual Business Meeting and Elections/Voting. The room will be located in the Convention Center, room 230/231. The date and time: Wednesday July 21, 2010 about 5:00 p.m., immediately following the training sessions. Having the Business Meeting and Election/Voting during the DARE America Conference instead of a day before or after results in no added costs to you (if you are attending the Conference). If you are not attending the DARE National Conference in July, you can still vote in the DAO Elections. Absentee Ballot Package information will be available on June 1, 2010 at http://www.dare-oh.org/awards.html.
On another note: DAO is planning a day at the Columbus Zoo for DARE Officers and their families. On this day, we will give the DAO Awards and scholarships and perform the swearing in of the new Officers.  The date has not yet been selected but it will be sometime in early August and I will get the date and particulars out to you by June 1 or before.

Thank you,Deputy Dick Groves, DAO President, Ross County Sheriffs Office
