2022 Utah County GOP Nominating Convention Notes & Tips
Saturday April, 9th – Cedar Valley High (Eagle Mountain)
Call to Convention with facility maps and the agenda will be emailed one week prior to Convention.
Check-in and Registration
On Saturday morning, registration for delegate credentials will take place from 7:00-9:00am. Registration will be by new Utah House District number. Please bring a photo ID to ensure check-in runs quickly and smoothly. Senate breakouts will begin at 8:15am. House breakouts will begin at 8:45am. The Call to Order for the group session begins promptly at 9:30am. Delegates that are late must check in at the Help Desk.
Convention Booths
Booths will also open at 7:00am. Come early to avoid long registration lines and meet with candidates, elected officials, and political interest groups.
House/Senate Breakouts
Contested races with a vote include House District 50, 58, 65 and Senate District 23. All other races will be by acclamation but will also include a check-in by your legislator.
Time Investment
Be prepared for a long day. Convention is scheduled to last until 2:00 pm. We are
working diligently to make the Convention run efficiently but please plan to stay until the meeting ends. Keep in mind there are breakout sessions before and after the general session (Utah House, Utah Senate & Local School Board Endorsements). Please check the schedule that will be emailed to you, and posted on-site Convention morning, to know which breakout sessions you will participate in.
Other
1. Dress Comfortably. We will be in the gym for several hours.
2. Bring snacks. We encourage you to pack some snacks and water to last the day.
3. Please put the school address (1389 E Aviator Ave Eagle Mountain 84005) into your phone maps before hand to check the estimated time of travel. It’s nearly 20 minutes off of I15.

Voting will only be in-person. The Convention date was known well before delegates were elected at Caucus.
