The Oklahoma Hotel & Lodging Association's annual Lodging Summit is our most exciting event of the year, where lodging operators from around the state of Oklahoma and their key team members have the opportunity to network with colleagues and others important to the success of their operation. The key components of the event include the association's Annual Membership and Board of Directors meeting where our new Board of Directors is elected, Oklahoma's largest lodging Vendor Expo where operators meet with the top providers of products and services, and last but not least our prestigious Stars of the Industry Awards luncheon. The Summit also features leadership of the American Hotel & Lodging Association as they highlight the state of the industry from a U.S. perspective.
The OHLA will announce the recipients of the annual Stars of the Industry Awards program, which was created to honor the outstanding professionals in Oklahoma's lodging industry. The awards are presented to individuals and properties that epitomize the service and spirit of our industry.

Health & Safety Precautions
Masks:
Due to the recent Omicron surge, OHLA requests that all attendees wear masks when not actively eating or drinking. As we put these safety precautions in place for our conference, we ask members' cooperation in keeping attendees safe. Additionally, if you are not feeling well, we ask that you refrain from attending this year's Summit, and instead join us at another upcoming event.
Seating:
Where possible, the OHLA will distance seating without changing the celebratory environment of the event.
