NORC is the premiere conference for outdoor recreation professionals with opportunities for learning, networking, and field-based case studies. During each conference, we create a program that inspires, challenges, and empowers the broad community of outdoor recreation professionals. The 2026 conference will take place in Duluth, MN in partnership with Duluth Area Outdoors Alliance. The engaging program will include 4 days (May 11-14, 2026) of classroom and field workshops, concurrent sessions, and a stellar lineup of keynotes. We will open a request for proposals in late summer/early fall 2025 for the 2026 conference.
