Registration for OWAA’s first ever ‘Field Fest’ event is now open! Johnson City, Tenn. is the host of this inaugural event.

But what is ‘Field Fest’? Basically it’s like a ‘mash-up’ of a mini-conference, marketplace, and various small group press trips. (It's also an opportunity for OWAA to work with smaller, more rural destinations.) There will be a marketplace to meet exhibitors and tourism boards, an editor’s panel, professional development sessions, networking and various tours around Johnson City!
