Boots to Heels Women's Conference
Detail how your county will market this program to inform potential participants. The one day conference will focus on rural women. It is intended to be a regional conference for all of southwest Iowa. Radio spots, Extension offices and web pages, printed posters, and ads will all be used to inform the potential audience. The dynamic and innovative speakers who will present during the conference will address an eclectic group of topics including on-line shopping, public election procedures and health issues.
Describe the new clientele that this program is intended to reach. How does your council envision this program will interest this clientele? The audience for this conference will come from local communities. The day will be filled with sharing, learning and mutual appreciation by women who are interested in contemporary issues that affect their families, their businesses and their communities. The day will also offer a generous amount of fun. The county Extension Councils envision this conference as a connecting point for women to spark a new interest, offer new learning and support the pride we all share in living and working in rural Iowa.
How does your council plan to utilize the mini grant? Council members will turn the grant funds over to the planning group to off-set the cost of this year’s keynote speaker. This planning group of thirteen women and county Extension education directors has been developing the conference in the past year. Several of them are veterans of the first conference which was held in 2007.
