The Washington State Association of Boundary Review Boards 2025 Annual Conference will be held in Kalama October 16 & 17, 2025.

The Annual Conference is generally the only opportunity for all BRB members and staff to meet. The conference provides the opportunity to share experiences, network with other members and staff, refresh one’s knowledge of the BRB process and procedures, and to conduct Association business.

The Association Executive Board encourages all members and staff to attend, but the conference is especially useful for new members and staff. Last year we online; this year we will meet in-person.

The agenda is almost set. We will have an BRB Overview presentation by Shelby Miklethun, King County BRB Executive Secretary, presentations by the Legislative and Education Committees, and some local county guest speakers.

It will be a full day of information, Thursday October 16 at 9:00am and running to 5pm. The Executive Board meeting will be held Friday October 17.

​The conference will be in-person only. Recordings will be provided on the website post conference.
