Date/Time June 18
As the official opening to AAPL’s 71st conference and one of the most popular networking events for landmen, this reception is a great place to connect with other attendees.

Date/Time June 19
This special event was created to celebrate and honor a trailblazing female land leader in the industry who has distinguished herself in her career, in the profession and has supported AAPL and its mission.
About the Award: The Blankenship Family Horizon Award is the product of a fund set up decades ago by former AAPL President Wayne Blankenship (1975) to honor his wife, Mary Blankenship, upon her passing. Originally, this fund supported the AAPL women’s auxiliaries for many years until they ceased to exist in the early '90s. To continue the Blankenship legacy of generosity, the AAPL Educational Foundation established the Blankenship Family Horizon Award in 2019 to honor female industry leaders and to be presented each year at AAPL’s Annual Meeting.

Date/Time June 19
This year's AAPL Celebratees will be held at the stunning Midland Theater, providing a can’t-miss evening of networking, drinks, dinner, entertainment and AAPL Honors.
