The theme of this year’s con
vention, "The Lead Team: Ex

ing Your Future", has an Oregon
Trail look to it, reflecting both the
historical significance of the
league and its commitment to
continued leadership within the
industry. Established in 1926, the
Oregon Wheat Growers League
was the first com m odity
organization for wheat formed in
the United States. It remains an
active force in the agricultural
community. “ Our goal at con
vention is to have an informative
time and to become better
educated on issues,” stated Bob
Johns, president of the OWGL.
“ We also look forward to
meeting old and new friends.”
Johns and his wife, Deborah, will
host the traditional “ President's
Reception” at Portland’s Wheat
Marketing Center on Sunday,
Nov. 28 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. All
growers are invited to attend.
In addition to business sessions,
the convention will feature a trade
and exhibit show, as well as an
off-site tour. The tour, designed
to inform growers of the impor
tance of the deepening of the Col
umbia River channel, will include
a visit to the Corps of Engineers
dredge “ Yaquina” .

registration details contact the
OWGL office in Pendleton at
