At the monthly board and committee meeting a discussion was held on the viability of holding the conference this year. The decision to cancel was not taken lightly and much discussion was shared from board and committee membership.
As part of that discussion we are committed to acknowledging award winners, service and educational. We are working out some options and will keep you informed the best we can.
Our charter/by-laws require we still have a business meeting in order to vote on the resolution that focuses on the future of the Conference. With this in mind we are looking to hold a business meeting before year end. We MUST have 75 members vote on the resolution!!! Balloting is also being worked on.
I want to extend a huge thank you to all the board members and especially the committee chairs who worked hard on the memberships behalf.
Future developments and plans will be shared here and on the Facebook page.
Sincerely,
Maurice Hardy President
