Please mark your calendars now for the 2021 conference to be held in Liberal, October 18-20, 2021.

The Heartland Byways Conference, scheduled for October 27-29, 2020, in Leavenworth, has been canceled. Unfortunately, there were too many challenges with gathering in a large group and the ability to tour the byways on a motorcoach. Thank you to everyone who had registered, had signed up as a sponsor, or was scheduled to be a speaker.  And a special thanks to the Leavenworth CVB for their commitment to hosting. We are looking at future byway conference opportunities. Paid registrations or sponsorships will be refunded. If you have questions please reach out to Sue Stringer (785)207-2685.

With the arrival of fall activities on many agritourism farms across Kansas and the opening of Christmas tree farms to follow, an organized virtual meeting has been scheduled to hear recommendations for safe practices throughout the season and ask questions on how to reduce corona virus risks for guests and staff. Please register at this link to join this free virtual meeting scheduled for 7pm, Thursday, October 1, 2020.
