OKPRI Official Announcement
The Oklahoma Paranormal
Conference
"Para-Float 2007"
Coming June 8th -9th 2007!!!
Tired of the same old paranormal conferences? Well here's a change!!!
Mark your calendars and be ready for the states largest paranormal
conference that's actually FUN & EXCITING!!! As of now, we are looking at teams
joining us from states as far away as New England and California. This will be
an entire weekend of fun and information!!!
You all spoke and we listened as this will be for serious paranormal
investigations teams, folks interested in the field and people who just have
questions. There won't be any boring moments,
just some fun along with some serious paranormal talk and answers to all of your
questions about ghosts and investigations from paranormal group speakers from
all over the U.S. and you don't have to be a member of a team to attend! So
whether you belong to a paranormal team or whether you are just a paranormal
enthusiast who loves anything to do with the paranormal, come join us for this
fun and exciting event! One of the other benefits to this conference is that the
admission to PARA-FLOAT is free (camping/float fee info below) and friends & family members of ALL ages are
welcome to attend!
Listen to informative seminars, guest speakers, ask questions from the
professionals and get to meet members of your paranormal community and that's
not all! We will be floating the river by day and then getting serious about the
paranormal towards the evening when the speakers start sharing their experiences
and giving information around the campfire that is not only informative &
insightful, but enjoyable as well. All those who choose to float the river will
be responsible to pay for their own float trip, and if staying in the tenting
campground area, the fee is $12 per car load per night. So grab you a tent or bring out your RV and let's have some
fun at PARA-FLOAT!!! We won't charge more then we need to pay for this event
unlike some seminars because we want you all to attend and our main goal is
getting those with like minds together to enjoy themselves this one spectacular
event! While there will be camping fees, float fees and RV fees these will be
given to you are a severely discounted rate via our contacts with these great
businesses we have teamed up with!

***There will be vendors present that will be selling food and drinks for a low cost (or you can bring your own). We will also have an area where other paranormal groups that are attending can set up their own table to sale items that they have or just to bring some paranormal insight to those who wish to stop in and talk to them. If you are a paranormal group that wishes to set up a table or if you do not belong to a paranormal group but have items that you would like to sale at this event, please let us know and if approved, we will reserve a spot for you.

Night:
We will be opening the gate and taking reserved tickets into Para-Float at 6pm.

everyone can get to know each other around a "Paranormal Campfire," hosted by
OKPRI. Do you have a ghost story you want to share? This would be the perfect
time to do it! Saturday: This will be even better as we set out to float the
river on a 6 mile float trip from Approx. 9am-4:00pm. After the float, we will
then have dinner and settle down for the infamous conference with a special
presentation from OKPRI and then from our special out of state guest speakers
who will dazzle you with their knowledge and impress you with their
presentations as well! We will have free activities on site, arts and crafts,
potato sack racing, ankle water balloon stomps, face painting and much more set
up for children of all ages to help keep them entertained while the adults enjoy
the conference as well as raffles for prices and a few booths set up for venders
