Partners in Planning is the theme for the 2019 State Planning Conference for APA Louisiana. It will be held May 23-24 in Baton Rouge. Use the buttons below to find additional information, register, and plan your visit.
Thursday starts early with the annual Chapter Business Meeting, followed by two lecture sessions before lunch. Afterward, we head over to the State Capitol to meet with our elected officials during legislative session. Putting what we learned earlier to work, we'll advocate for issues important to our communities and our profession. Afterwards, we gather at "The Loft" for a chapter social including a presentation of awards. Click Program to read the details.
We're offering simplified pricing for this year's conference, with a discount rate for students. Even a mobile workshop on Friday is included. The evening meal is on your own, allowing freedom to choose from downtown Baton Rouge's many restaurants.
Hotel Indigo will be our official hotel where we've reserved a block of rooms at a special rate. In the heart of downtown, its just a short walk to BRAC's (the Chamber of Commerce) new offices.
We're not constrained by a single conference facility this year! And all of the venues are within Baton Rouge's walkable downtown. (Bus service provided for the Water Campus tour.) There is even a custom map of the various locations to help you find your way! Soon we'll expand this page to provide more venue details and photos.
With each of our chapter conferences, individual registration fees are kept low by the generous support of our sponsors. Wouldn't you like to sponsor a continental breakfast bar or a mobile workshop or part of an evening social? A range of sponsorship levels will ensure your name and logo are seen by all attendees to lecture and awards events, and also to visitors to this website. Click sponsor to learn how and how much.
