Texas Recreation and Park Society 2021 Institute & Expo

As you can expect, the 2021 Institute will be different. We won’t be hugging. We won’t be packing into a standing-room-only session and then
racing through a crowded hallway and high-fiving our friends on the way.
But we will refuse to quietly resign ourselves to yet another Zoom meeting. This has lead the TRAPS Institute Planning Committee, TRAPS
Board of Directors, and TRAPS staff to create an event unlike any we’ve attempted and unlike any that is being offered by other state and national organizations. We are boldly charging forward with an in-person
event but will offer the same great experience to virtual attendees.

In-Person:
Those of you that are craving social connection, live events, and the
the energy of other human beings, we’ve created an opportunity for you to do
those things. We will be abiding by stringent social distancing
protocols, we will be wearing masks, we will be limiting the amount of
traffic in hallways, but we will be gathering at the Frisco Convention
Center. In-person attendees will have the option to attend the
“Playmakers” sessions in the main ballroom or may opt for a more
intensive experience in one of our breakout workshops brought to you by
nationally renowned professionals in our field.

In-Person
attendees will be able to add-on pre-recorded education sessions in the
“Press Play” library for 30 days after the event for a reduced fee.

In-Person
attendees will receive breaks and lunch with safety protocols in place.
Safety protocols will be in place, more information coming soon.

Virtual:
We recognize that not everyone is able or comfortable traveling and attending an event, or may not have the budget to support it. In fact,
we recognize that this was the case for many people prior to Covid.
We’ve endeavored to bring the excitement and connection of the Annual
Institute and Expo to you virtually and hope you will join us. Virtual
attendees will experience, real-time, our general session, “Playmakers”
sessions, keynote, and awards ceremony through the comfort of your home or office. In addition to a full-day of streaming content, virtual
attendees will also have access to a catalog of 30+ pre-recorded
education sessions in the “Press Play” library for 30 days after the event.

Pre-registration is required – no on-site registration
