With summer comes travel and with travel comes…increased spending.

It’s no secret that when the weather goes up, so do everyday expenses. It’s because of this that Heart of Oklahoma has planned its annual EduFest on Aug. 27 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The entire Edmond community is invited to attend. Located at the Downtown Community Center at 28 E. Main Street, EduFest strives to help locals manage their finances in a smarter, more efficient way.

This year’s theme is “Making Better Buy and Sell Decisions,” and President of ICLUBcentral, Doug Gerlach, will present as the keynote. As Editor-in-Chief of the award winning “Investor Advisory Service” and the “Small Cap Informer,” Gerlach will bring his knowledge on the following topics:

• Smarter Stock Selection in Seven Easy Steps

• Profit Margins and the Most Important Determinant of Company Quality

• Sensible Strategies for Coping with Bear Markets, Sideways Markets and Corrections

Pre-registration is open until Aug. 19. For more information on registration fees and other details about the day’s events, visit edufest2016.eventbrite.com.
