SUMMARY:OPEA's 47th Annual Convention
DESCRIPTION:OPEA’s Annual Convention and Delegate Assembly is a few months out. Save the date for OPEA’s 47th Annual Convention on August 26th & 27th\, starting at 6 PM. Members are invited to join us at the Holiday Inn North located at 6200 N Robinson Ave\, Oklahoma City\, OK\, 73118. \nOur annual convention is where Oklahoma state employees gather to introduce\, debate and amend platform planks for the 2023 legislative session. If you are interested in shaping OPEA’s legislative agenda make your voice heard by joining us at our annual convention. This is a great opportunity to network with fellow state employees\, state elected officials\, and get a heads up on what to expect for the 2023 legislative session. We will also be announcing the official results of the state president and regional director elections at the convention. Don’t worry the convention isn’t just business. We plan fun activities all evening on Friday. So come meet fellow OPEA members and join the party! \nThe 2022 convention is a two-day in-person event that will accommodate virtual attendance. Only OPEA members may attend the event in person\, but anyone can watch our Facebook live stream. However\, Only In-person attendees may participate in the plank debate. \nFriday night the 26th\, we will have dinner at the hotel\, and other activities to be announced that are free for all members and their families. We will begin Saturday with breakfast and then get down to OPEA business at 9 am. There will be a silent auction\, door prizes\, and more on Saturday. We will honor our award winners during a luncheon Saturday and plan our 2023 legislative agenda. \nIt only cost $20 to stay at the convention hotel on Friday night for members who attend the convention through the delegate assembly on Saturday. At the end of the convention\, OPEA will hand each member present who stayed at the hotel on Friday night\, a card to give to the desk clerk when you check out of the room. This card will assure that OPEA will pay for the remainder of your room minus the $20 fee. If members choose to upgrade to a suite\, OPEA will pay up to the price of a standard room. OPEA will not pay the cost of any members who leave the convention prior to the end of the delegate assembly on Saturday. There is no cost to attend the convention for those who attend on Saturday only. \nMembers who are spending the night at the hotel must make their own reservations at the Holiday Inn North located at 6200 N Robinson Ave\, Oklahoma City\, OK\, 73118\, and may do so by calling them at (405) 286-4777. Be sure to tell them you are with OPEA. You will need to reserve your room with the hotel using your credit card. OPEA will not reserve a room for you. \nMembers will also need to provide the hotel with a credit card when they check in to pay for any incidentals. OPEA will not pay for any room incidentals for any members. We will only pay for Friday night’s lodging and applicable taxes minus the $20.00 fee. Attendees who stay additional nights will be responsible for those charges. \nThere is no registration fee for the convention.  The $20 room will be charged to your credit card that is on file with the hotel when you check out. \nThis is going to be an informative and meaningful convention. We certainly have work to do getting ready for the 2023 legislative session. But\, let’s all get together\, plan for OPEA’s future\, and have some fun too. \n\nUnofficial Itinerary (Subject to Change)\nAugust 26th\n6 PM – Registration Opens\n6 PM – Legislative Reception Begins\nJoin us in welcoming our state-elected officials and candidates running for office this year.

SUMMARY:AMBA Webinar Series: Long Term Care 201
DESCRIPTION:What happens if I have knee replacement surgery?\nWhat happens if I fall and need assistance for a few months?\nWhat happens if we notice mom’s early-onset dementia? \nThe world of Elder Care and Long Term Care is much more than just spending the last few years in a Nursing Home. Needing extended care can be for accidents or planned surgeries and be provided in the comfort of home\, an assisted living facility\, or other specialized facilities. \nJoin us as we take a deeper dive into the “What ifs” of life when it comes to needing extended care and how the OPEA can help. We’ll also give you a Legislative Session update \n  \nRSVP HERE: https://ambabenefits.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_TVZ49eujQrCHI9wOyU9KRQ
