Annual Meeting Information
Due to the high community infection rate of COVID-19 and the current strain on our state's medical facilities, ONPS does not feel comfortable hosting a large indoor gathering as originally planned in Stillwater. While scaled down, we will continue with the plan to visit an area where a prescribed burn took place this spring just outside of Pawnee. It is a combination of private property and Pawnee tribal land. Participation for field trip is limited to 20 people. Anyone previously registered will be sent an email to confirm attendance. If you are not coming, we need to release your place to someone on the waiting list.
The Annual Business Meeting and the ONPS Board Meeting will be held via Zoom. If you would like instructions on how to attend the Zoom meeting(s), contact Fran Stallings at fran.stallings@icloud.com.
