President's Welcome
Fellow Journalists:
An open message to personally invite you to the 2010 Native Nations Media Conference – a convention partnership between Native American Public Communications and the Native American Journalists Association held in St. Paul, Minnesota July 21-24, 2010.
We are encouraged that Native American Public Telecommunications will co-sponsor this year’s conference with NAJA. The partnership makes it economically possible to offer professional workshops, panels and technical training geared towards fulfilling our dual mission statements.
The theme, “Words + Images x Technology = Red Power,” should entice your media appetite to want to be able to attend the conference to get the full flavor of what this year’s conference has in store.
I am also personally and professionally pleased with the Crowne Plaza St. Paul Riverfront in making it possible to select it as the host site for the 2010 Native Nations Media Conference. I am confident conference participants will also be pleased with the site.
The conference registration rates have now been posted, with considerable graduated savings for early birds.
I hope and pray Creator makes is possible for you to make a clear path to St. Paul, Minnesota July 21-24 for the 2010 Native Nations Media Conference.
Ronnie Washines, President
Native American Journalists Association
