This is an invitation-only Summit, and all on-site expenses (room, registration and meals) for elected officials are covered by State Agriculture and Rural Leaders, a federal 501 c(3) non-profit. There are also travel scholarships for those without state or campaign funds for transportation.
You can fly into the New Orleans airport and take a super shuttle to Baton Rouge or fly into Baton Rouge. You might even want to spend an extra day or two taking in the sites of southern Louisiana.
We always begin the Summit with some site visits of regional agriculture. In Baton Rouge that includes an optional visit to a grain export elevator on Thursday afternoon, crawfish and catfish, Angola prison and a gator farm. You can not participate in all of these and will have to make choices.
Note: Attendance at the LAC Summit is by invitation only. Registration is not complete until you have received a confirmatory email.If you do not receive an email within 24 hours, please contact corr@agandruralleaders.org or (765) 893-8209.
