OCSBOA CONFERENCE 2020 CANCELLATION

Blue Mountain Resort, September 30-October 2, 2020

It is with regret that we announce the cancellation of the OCSBOA Conference 2020.

COVID-19 has had a huge impact on all aspects of personal, social and global interests.

Guided by government announcements, science projections and in consideration of our health professionals, we must act responsibly to ensure the safety of all delegates and guests. 

The Board will, instead, schedule a Virtual AGM and Committee Meetings on October 1, 2020 (more details to follow).

OCSBOA wishes to thank the Catholic partners, Catholic School Boards and conference vendors/ sponsors for their valued on-going support over many years.  We recognize those in our Catholic community who have acted promptly and in the best interests of students and staff in our system; and the many vendors and sponsors whose businesses are vital to the economy.   Also, thank you to our front-line workers who continue to show extraordinary courage and commitment in the face of this devastating pandemic.

Like so many, we will continue to work through these uncertain and distressing times. We will focus on providing a relevant and significant conference in 2021.

Stay strong and keep well!

Joe O’Hara
