Young Farmers and Ranchers Conference
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
NC Farm Bureau's YF&R Conference is scheduled January 30 – 31, 2010, at the Marriott Crabtree Valley, Raleigh, NC. I urge you to seek out young farmers in your county who would benefit from this leadership experience and encourage them to attend. The State YF&R Committee has planned a program reflecting the interests and concerns of our young farm families. A tentative agenda and directions are enclosed.
Conference attendees are to register using the Registration Form. Click here for a Registration Form. PARTICIPANTS SHOULD INCLUDE THEIR FULL ADDRESSES. NC Farm Bureau will pay for overnight rooms for young farmers and ranchers attending the conference. Participants will be responsible for their registration fees, transportation, meals not included on the agenda and incidental hotel charges (i.e. phone calls, room service, etc.). Those attending need to pick up their registration packets in the Ballroom Foyer between 8:30 – 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, January 30. Sessions will begin at 10:00 a.m. The conference will conclude at 10:15 a.m. on Sunday, January 31.
A registration fee of $100 per person is required to attend the conference. The fee will be WAIVED for 2010 State YF&R Committee members and spouses.
