Conference Tours
All 2012 NACDEP Conference Field Trips are included in your conference registration (With the exception of mountain biking and the nature preserve. There is also an additional charge for tour guests.). Besides being new, interesting, and fun experiences in Utah, each field trip will have an educational community development component, and hopefully a "take home" message of value as to why the particular venue is valued for its contribution to local and regional community and economic development.
Tours include:
The Park City Museum and Walking Tour of the Historic Downtown
The Mountain Trails Foundation and Mountain Bike Ride on Park City's Historic Union Pacific Rail Trail
The Utah Olympic Park Tour and Bobsled Ride
Antelope Island State Park
... and many more. Click here for registration and additional tour options.

Greetings!
Your NACDEP organization has been beyond busy these past few months. The elections for offices and the board have been organized and are currently underway. PLEASE VOTE. A great group of members have put their names forward in this election. They deserve your courtesy and attention by voting. My Irish mother always said, "If you didn't vote, you shouldn't complain." Don't sit on the sidelines. Take a couple of minutes to help NACDEP and vote. The election ballot was sent to our membership on January 10, 2012. If you haven't yet voted, please watch for a reminder email early next week. Read more of the President's letter here ...
