66th Siouxland/Washington VIRTUAL Conference

Description

The Siouxland/Washington Conference, held every Spring since 1954, provides a unique opportunity for Siouxland Chamber members and community leaders from the tri-state area to present regional issues of importance to our Congressional delegation.  Due to COVID-19, our 2021 Siouxland/Washington Conference will be held VIRTUALLY via Zoom and WebEx on October 20 and 21. We are in the process of scheduling meetings with each of the six Senators representing Iowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota, as well as the eight Representatives from the three states. Just as our in-person two-day schedule is packed with meetings around the Hill, we are also scheduling meetings with department representatives and other notable speakers. If you haven't been able to attend our Siouxland/Washington Conference in the past, this will be a great opportunity to experience the conference without the cost and time away from your business.  This virtual conference is free of charge. Registration is required.

For your planning purposes a tentative schedule is listed below. Closer to the event date all registered attendees will receive the Zoom/WebEx information and conference materials which will include the final itinerary/meeting agenda, issue papers, etc.

As you register online (after you click on "add attendee"), please let us know your attendance plans (yes/no) for each individual meeting listed. This will help us ensure good attendance at all of the meetings. Thank you!
