ANNUAL CONVENTION

The public is invited to learn about conservation efforts in Kansas. 

Since 1944, KACD has helped forge key partnerships among federal, state, and local entities all committed to a common goal: wise use and protection of our state’s natural resources. These partnerships have been highly effective and mutually beneficial, allowing for shared space, equipment, and knowledge.

An annual convention is typically held in Wichita the Sunday through Tuesday before Thanksgiving.  Each year, the KACD convention offers breakout sessions and keynote speakers aimed at providing members with timely education and information. 

Save the date and plan to join us November 23-25, 2025 in Wichita, KS
