The primary Summit program is planned for the afternoon of Monday, October 18th through Tuesday, October 19th and will be held virtually, but we are also welcoming proposals for longer-form virtual workshops and field trips, tours, and in-field trainings to take place around the state Sunday, October 17th-Saturday, October 23rd.<\/p>\n<p>Call for Proposals open through June 4, 2021<\/p>\n<p>We welcome and encourage proposals from the full diversity of our Oregon outdoor recreation community:<br \/>\n-from agency staff, volunteers, academics, and private sector professionals,<br \/>\n-from urban trails to wilderness, from motorized and non-motorized perspectives, hunters and anglers, and land and water recreation-related topics,<br \/>\n-from all cultural backgrounds, and from all corners of Oregon and those with lessons to share from beyond our state\u2019s borders.<\/p>\n<p>All proposals should have clear educational objectives or learning outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>We particularly encourage proposals that delve into an aspect of our key theme for 2021: ensuring outdoor recreation-related recovery brings us all to a better place: more equitable, more sustainable, and stronger than ever. This theme encompasses building powerful connections across sectors and communities and inspiring effective action toward shared goals.<\/p>\n<p>This RFP has four sections.<\/p>\n<p>Section 1: Basic proposer contact and presenter bio information.<\/p>\n<p>Section 2: Proposals for full, stand-alone virtual workshops, roundtables, and presentations.<br \/>\nMost full sessions during the primary Summit will be 50-75 minutes in length, but proposals for longer form workshops are welcome as well, and may be offered later in the Summit programming week. You may also submit a shorter proposal (10-20 minutes) to be paired with others of a related topic. We especially welcome interactive and experiential learning opportunities and unique approaches to sharing information. Please consider how you can share your topic creatively and effectively in a virtual programming format.<\/p>\n<p>Section 3: Proposals for short (10-20 minute) case studies and round table participants for specific virtual session topics identified by the planning committee.<\/p>\n<p>Section 4: Proposals for tours, in-field learning, and stewardship opportunities around the state to take place between Sunday, October 17th, and Saturday, October 23rd. If you&#8217;d like to host a local, outdoor networking opportunity during the Summit, please contact Steph Noll.<\/p>\n<p>Please submit a separate proposal for each session you&#8217;re proposing.<\/p>\n<p>Questions: Contact Steph Noll, 503-290-4569; <a href=\"mailto:steph.noll@oregontrailscoalition.org\">steph.noll@oregontrailscoalition.org<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8699,"featured_media":34103,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_s2mail":"yes"},"categories":[11],"tags":[4,40,19,21,7,12,13,8,9],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40086"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8699"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40086"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40086\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":40087,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40086\/revisions\/40087"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34103"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40086"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40086"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.evergreen.edu\/mesweekly\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40086"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
