HOTEL ROOMS—DEADLINE APPROACHING

The July 23 hotel reservation deadline is quickly approaching. ONLY ONE DAY OUT

We know the room block at the Omni Oklahoma City Hotel sold out. However, we currently have approximately 20 rooms remaining in our staff block that we will not be using.

We are making these rooms available to our attendees on a first-come, first-served basis. If you need one or more rooms at the Omni (Host Hotel), please email Chloe at [email protected] and let her know how many rooms you need. She will confirm whether rooms are still available and provide booking instructions.

OVERFLOW HOTEL

We have also secured an overflow room block at the Courtyard Marriott, located just a couple of blocks from the Omni.

Please make your hotel arrangements as soon as possible, as the reservation cutoff date is also approaching. Availability at both hotels is limited.

RAFFLE DONATIONS NEEDED

Numerous raffles will be held throughout conference week to raise money for the National Criminal Enforcement Association (NCEA) Fallen Officer Fund. NCEA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and we are asking attendees to consider bringing one or more items to donate.

We welcome donations of all sizes, including:
• Agency patches and challenge coins
• Shirts, hats, and other apparel
• Knives and outdoor equipment
• Fi****ms
• Gift certificates
• Other law-enforcement-related merchandise

We will combine smaller donated items to create larger raffle packages.

For every $10 in donated value, you will receive one FREE raffle ticket. You could donate a knife, use your complimentary tickets, and end up winning a firearm!

We will have a lot of great prizes available throughout the week, and every ticket purchased helps support the Fallen Officer Fund.

CASE STUDY AND CONCEALMENT PRESENTATIONS

We are looking for attendees interested in presenting a recent interdiction case study during the conference. These presentations will take place on Friday morning, August 21.

We are especially interested in cases involving a hidden compartment, unusual concealment method, or another unique investigative element. Our goal is to select approximately six officers, with each officer receiving about 15 minutes to present their case.

If you are interested in presenting, please email Dave Frye at [email protected] with a brief description of your case.

We look forward to seeing everyone in Oklahoma City!

Top-notch training and networking...that's what you can expect at the National Interdiction Conference taking place in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, from August 16–21, 2026.

We're 33 days out, and the excitement continues to build. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol, the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics, and countless instructors, sponsors, and volunteers have been working hard behind the scenes to make this one of the best National Interdiction Conferences yet.

The Agenda Is Live!

If you've been waiting to see this year's training lineup, the wait is over. We've assembled an outstanding agenda featuring nationally recognized instructors and breakout sessions designed specifically for narcotics officers, patrol officers, interdiction officers, investigators, agents, supervisors, and all other law enforcement professionals.

Featured Speakers
We're excited to welcome former Oklahoma Highway Patrol Lieutenant Charlie Hanger, whose traffic stop of Timothy McVeigh just minutes after the Oklahoma City bombing became one of the most significant law enforcement events in American history. Charlie will share his firsthand account and the lessons learned from that historic case.

We're also honored to welcome Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin as our Awards Banquet speaker. His unique perspective on national security, border security, and law enforcement issues promises to make this year's banquet one to remember.

Tuesday Night Truck Yard Excursion
Networking doesn't stop when the training day ends. We have multiple networking sessions lined up over the week, to include our annual Tuesday Night Excursion.
On Tuesday evening, attendees are invited to join us at Truck Yard, one of Oklahoma City's most unique gathering spots. Enjoy live music, lawn games, discounted food and drinks, and a relaxed atmosphere while connecting with fellow law enforcement professionals from across the country.

New for 2026 – Wellness Bus
Throughout the week, attendees will have access to our 40-foot Wellness Bus featuring massage chairs, a sleep treatment bed, and a quiet debriefing area. Whether you need a few minutes to recharge between training sessions or simply unwind after a long day, this resource will be available throughout the conference.
Raffle Prizes Continue to Grow!

The prize table keeps getting bigger! We have now secured more than $25,000 in raffle prizes, including multiple fi****ms, electronics, vacations, and much more.
One lucky attendee will also win a single-purpose trained canine valued at approximately $10,000. We'll continue adding prizes as the conference approaches, giving attendees even more chances to take home some incredible giveaways.

Explore Oklahoma City
Oklahoma City has lots to offer, to include the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum. The museum has agreed to give our attendees a discounted rate, and we encourage our attendees to check this place out and experience one of our nation's most meaningful historical sites.
