Join Us!Welcome

The 51st Annual Conference of the California Land Surveyors Association will be held on March 24-28, 2017. The Conference Committee, chaired by Bill Hofferber, has worked hard to assemble an extraordinary line-up of education sessions and speakers. In addition, we will have the usual favorites, including the Golf and Bowling Tournaments, Exhibit Hall, Sunday night Opening Reception, Silent Auction and the Scholarship Auction and Dinner. For 2017, the CLSA Conference will deliver all of this and more in a streamlined format so that the conference will wrap up on Tuesday. By concluding the conference on Tuesday instead of Wednesday, California surveyors will enjoy all of the continuing education of previous conferences in one fewer day, saving on hotel and related travel costs and getting you home and back to work sooner.

Monday, March 27th

The Scholarship Auction, which is held in conjunction with the Exhibitor-Sponsored Cocktail Party, continues to be one of the highlights of the Conference. Vendors, chapters and individual members donate items ranging from the latest in computer software to older (we prefer the term “historic”) survey equipment.

There’s something for everyone and every pocketbook and, best of all, all proceeds are used to support surveying education.

To donate an item to the Scholarship Auction, please fax, mail or email the form below. Thank you for supporting land surveying education!
