Land Acknowledgement Morehead State University and the surrounding area are located on the traditional lands of the Yuchee, Shawnee, and Eastern Band of Cherokee. Indigenous peoples have lived on the land we now call Kentucky for over 12,000 years. We want to acknowledge the deep history of this land and the people who still live here today.

THURSDAY EVENING ACTIVITIES Sponsored by Far Off Cows Dental Ceramics Join us for the most exciting part of the conference! Enjoy an amazing dinner, great music, networking opportunities, a silent and live auction, and the unmissable Dash for Cash.
LIVE AUCTION Don’t miss our live auction following dinner. Bid on our unique, locally-made artwork, educational materials, books, vacation getaways, and more. With so many great items and fun people in one place, it’s bound to be a good time!
DASH FOR CASH Easily the most entertaining three minutes in EE—the annual Dash for Cash. KAEE Staff and Conference Co-Chairs face off to raise the most cash for KAEE. Whoever collects the least cash during the Thursday night dash will have a bucket of ice water poured on their head during the conference closing. Bring your dollars and decide which team you plan to support.
MUSIC Entertainment will be provided by Jeri Howell & Nat Colten. Born and raised in Frankfort, Howell and Colten grew up on bluegrass, Appalachian, country, classical, and world musical traditions, and they sow seeds of each into their own lyrics and melodies to create a signature Folk/Americana sound. With Howell on guitar and Colten playing banjo, their vocals pour out like bourbon and Ale-8—a sweet burn, mixed well and meant to be.
