PARK BRIEFS

NEWS FROM AROUND THE AERIAL ADVENTURE INDUSTRY

As in the past, there is a full schedule of pre- and post-conference training and certi- fication sessions and exams. These all involve separate registration and fees, but the smaller session size and longer duration allow for more comprehensive programs. Pre- and post-conference sessions take place Feb. 20-23 and 25. Exhibit Hall Changes Several changes aim to make the expo portion of the conference more effective. Early hours. The hall will be open 4-6:30 p.m. on Thursday, then 9 a.m.-1:30 p.m. and 4-6:30 p.m. on Friday, and 9 a.m.-2 p.m. on Saturday. In short, the hours have been moved earlier to provide more time for post-show networking, meetings, exploring Oklahoma City, or relaxation. Free lunch. To encourage attendees to explore the expo and to provide another networking opportunity, ACCT will host beverage service and lunches in the hall on Friday and Saturday. However, ACCT will not sponsor food for the afternoon/evening expo sessions. A new addition to the expo, the ACCT Artisans Exhibit, showcases the work of industry artisans. Attendees will have the opportunity to view the gallery and, during select hours, meet the artists. Outside Activities In addition to the happenings in the exhibit hall and educational sessions, ACCT will host two activities outside the conference walls: local challenge course tours, and a new take on the ACCT Olympics.

Two separate challenge course tours, one at a local camp and the other at a nearby aerial adventure facility, were in the works at press time.

The freestanding park is currently located in beautiful Squamish, British Columbia, Canada and the business has been in operation since late 2017. Buy it as a turn-key business, or the seller will help dismantling, moving and re-assembling the park to your preferred location. This is a great opportunity to own a quality aerial adventure park at a very low price. 48 Climbing Elements + 2 Axe Throwing Lanes

Harnessing OKC. The new twist on the ACCT Olympics mimics the actual Olympics, as it presents a series of challenges spread across Oklahoma City. Called Harnessing OKC: A Multi-Day Adventure, this initiative will involve activities and missions inside the convention hall and out in the city. It will culminate in the traditional cable whip event Saturday afternoon. Much like the conference itself, the adventure begins on Thursday, with a bonus activity or two open to attendees who arrive and register early. Other Details Sponsorships. ACCT’s new sponsorship opportunities start at $100 and help provide services and benefits to attendees and conference volunteers. One level of spon - sorship was to provide scholarships (which closed Oct. 6) to create more learning opportunities for younger members of the aerial adventure community. Conference fees. Cost for early registration (by Nov. 17) begins at $295 for the exhibit hall only and $355 for a Thursday pass to the full conference. Various options are available for partial or full attendance for ACCT members, non-members, and student/military attendees. Fees increase $60 in most cases except one- or two-day passes after Nov. 17, and still higher after Jan. 5. Pre-, post-conference fees. Early registration fees (by Nov. 17) for pre- and post-con- ference sessions and certifications range from $250 to $450; some supplier training sessions run $75 to $195. All increase $50 after Nov. 17. Future dates. ACCT has set dates for the conference for the following two years. The 2025 conference will be held Jan. 22-26 in Cleveland, Ohio, and the 2026 edition will return to Oklahoma City Feb. 5-8.
