A dynamic and inspiring Oklahoma business leader is set to headline an upcoming Lunch and Learn event at Green Country Technology Center on Tuesday, April 29. The event, titled “All Roads Lead to Okmulgee,” will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at GCTC’s Seminar Center, located at 1100 OK-56 Loop in Okmulgee.

Presented in collaboration with the Okmulgee Chamber of Commerce, Okmulgee Main Street, REI Oklahoma and Small Business Services at GCTC, the event will feature keynote speaker Joni Nash - a seasoned auctioneer, rancher, and former Executive Director of the Pawhuska Chamber of Commerce.

Nash is widely recognized for her energetic leadership style and her instrumental role in Pawhuska’s economic revival, which she attributes in part to the opening of the Pioneer Woman Mercantile. Her firsthand experience in community transformation, small business support, and rural development has made her a sought-after speaker across the state.

“Joni’s story is one of perseverance, vision, and the power of community collaboration,” event organizers said. “Anyone interested in economic development, local entrepreneurship or just an uplifting success story should not miss this event.”

Lunch will be catered and attendees will enjoy opportunities for networking and business insights throughout the program.

Individual tickets are priced at $20 per person. Early registration is encouraged due to limited seating. For more information or to reserve your spot, contact Melissa Hess at mhess@gctcok.edu or by phone at 918-759-0662. Event flyers with ticket details and sponsorship options are also available.
