The Kentucky Narcotic’s Officers Association (KNOA) was officially formed in 2004 to become the 43rd State Narcotics Officers’ Association to join America’s National Narcotics Officers’ Association Coalition.

We are preparing for our 17th annual Kentucky Narcotics Officers’ Association (KNOA) conference August 31, September 1, and 2, 2022 at the Downtown Hilton Hotel, Lexington, Kentucky. The conference will begin at 1 P. M. on the 31st and end at 12 P. M. on the 2nd of September. The conference is sponsored by the KNOA, Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy, Kentucky State Police, Appalachia HIDTA, Ohio HIDTA, Kentucky League of Cities, and the Regional Organized Crime Information Center (ROCIC) (RISS). After the success of our previous conferences, we expect another tremendous turnout due to the Kentucky Office of Drug Control Policy sponsoring scholarships for 85 rooms based on double occupancy at no cost to law enforcement officers and executives. These rooms will be filled as over 350 registered and attended the 2021 conference. Due to Covid19 we cancelled the 2020 conference.

You are invited to attend the entire three-day conference and officially represent your company to the members of Kentucky law enforcement. The hotel is providing vendor booth space in a secure hallway leading into and out of the conference meeting room of the hotel. A vendor’s fee of $450.00 will be charged to assist the conference sponsors’ expenses. If your company becomes a vendor or wishes to provide a donation to the KNOA to help cover conference expenses, special recognition will be provided in the conference literature and throughout the entire three-day event.

Vendor Rooms will be available at the Downtown Hilton Hotel for $110 (GSA Government Rate) single or double occupancy. The block room will open later in the summer.

Please contact me as soon as possible at 270 843 5343 or [email protected] for specific details or to answer any questions you may have. We are looking forward to seeing you in Lexington at our training conference.
