The meeting will be held in the Cy Young Conference Room at the Hampton Inn on Rt. 36 near I-77.
Keating said the sighting occurred about 3 p.m. last Tuesday in Tuscarawas County, less than five miles from New Philadelphia.
He said a witness who prefers to remain anonymous was driving home when she spotted the dark gray creature walking rapidly uphill toward a wooded area.
Keating also notes that all of the alleged sightings that have taken place in 2004 in Ohio will be discussed in depth.
Additional information and planning will be discussed regarding the 17th Annual Bigfoot Conference at Salt Fork State Park on May 7.
