OK, the LEAD Evolution Blogger has a motive for sharing information with you about The 10th National Conference on Tar Creek. Not only will top minds in the country be attending (well, since you have a great one, shouldn't you be there, too!) but also you need to attend so that you can find out what progress has taken place and what the future hopefully holds for northeastern Oklahoma.
