Eastern Plains Senior Speak-Out

The Eastern Plains Legislative Task Force (EPLTF) annually sponsors this event, usually held in October each year.  The EPLTF is composed of seniors citizens interested in legislative issues from sixteen easten Colorado counties.   The conference location is rotated yearly,  held in the southeast region of the state one year, on the central plains one year and then in the northeast region before starting all over again.  

The conference was first held in 1977 as a means for legislators to learn first-hand the opinions of area seniors regarding legisation effecting them; giving senior citizens an opportunity to Speak-Out.  Over the years, that purpose remains, but the conference has been expanded to include educational and recreational topics.  

 Senior Speak-Out XL (40)

This year, the tentative theme is "Lordy, Lordy...Look What's Forty"

and will be held on

October 6 & 7, 2016 in Burlington, Colorado

Tentation Agenda             Registration Form


     Highlights:

~ Keynote Speaker - Dr. Colorado (Professor Thomas J. Noel)

~ Legislative Session - Friday

Scholarships will be offered to residents of the 16 eastern Colorado counties.  Cost is very reasonable...only $93.00 per person (double occupancy) which includes registration for both days, the hotel room/breakfast, and the banquet on Thursday.
