We hope that you will join us at the National Interdiction Conference happening in Charleston, SC, Sept 7 – 12, 2025. This event is hosted by the South Carolina Highway Patrol, and will not disappoint!
We are excited to announce that DJ Daniel will be joining us at our conference. For those of you who don’t know, DJ was diagnosed in 2018 with brain and spinal cancer and given just months to live. His mission is to be sworn in by as many police agencies as possible, and he’s already joined the ranks of more than 1,000 departments. DJ stole the show during President Trump’s address to Congress, during which he officially swore him in as a member of the Secret Service. If you are an agency head, and you’d like to participate in a mass swearing in for DJ at the conference, helping him to expand his goal, please send an email to John Johnson: [email protected]
IMPORTANT: You must register for the conference by Friday, August 8th, to get the standard conference rate. The price goes up $100 per attendee, beginning on Saturday.
As we’ve said previously, Robert O’Neill will be presenting at this year’s conference. His block is titled “The Operator: Firing the Shot That Killed Osama Bin Laden & My Years as A SEAL Team Warrior.” Q&A will follow his presentation.
In addition to Robert O’Neill, we’ve put together a solid agenda and you will find it here: https://www.desertsnow.com/media/2025_NIC_1st_Draft_Agenda.pdf
Raffle Prizes: Currently, over $50,000 in raffle prizes have been secured and these include multiple handguns / rifles / shotguns, a PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, a one week stay at a beach house in Edisto Beach, AND….. One lucky attendee will win a Dual Purpose Trained Canine from Europe which will include a flight to Europe to select and pick up the dog (20k+ value).
Hotel: It is our understanding that the host hotel has sold out of rooms. Anticipating this might happen, the NIC secured additional rooms, at amazing rates, at multiple overflow locations. All of them being a short walking distance from the host hotel and conference center. To arrange your room, simply select an overflow location from this page:

With the conference hotel being located just 10 miles from the Atlantic Seaboard, we have put together a Tuesday night excursion that will give everyone a fun and memorable South Carolina experience!
