80th Annual Oregon Logging Conference

Presented by Oregon Logging Conference

Description

OREGON LOGGING CONFERENCE (OLC). The Oregon Logging Conference Foundation is taking a pro-active step toward addressing the need for attracting a younger generation of workers into the logging and forestry industry. Future Forestry Workers Day is planned to take place on Friday, February 23, 2018 at the Oregon Logging Conference in Eugene, OR. DATE: Friday, February 23, 2018. PLACE: Oregon Logging Conference, Eugene, OR. This one-day on-site visit will expose high school students to the logging and forestry industry. There are career opportunities available now, for those both with and without a college degree. This program is an opportunity for students to touch, see, climb on, and sit in the seats at the largest static logging, trucking, and construction equipment show in the United States. The plan calls for students to arrive at the OLC at 9 AM and to receive a self-guided map for hands-on visits to equipment displays and other informational booths. The visit would conclude with a hosted lunch and additional industry information presented. The students would also be invited to return to OLC the following day (Family Day) and bring their families and friends to learn more about the timber industry. Students who attend this hands-on career day at OLC will also be given information about the Pacific Logging Congress', 8th Annual in the Woods Show, taking place in September 2018 on the Oregon State University Research Forest in Corvallis, OR. This event will offer a follow-up, up close and personal opportunity for students to learn about job opportunities in the logging and forestry industry. For more information about Future Forestry Workers, contact OLC Manager Rikki Wellman at 541/686-9191.
