The NGAMA Executive Committee has some very important updates to share, so we ask that you please read this entire update carefully.
2021 NGAMA State Conference is CANCELLED
2021 ELECTIONS-Member Comment Period
During its March meeting, the Executive Committee proposed canceling the 2021 NGAMA Officer Elections and keeping the current Executive Committee Members in place until the membership is able to hold an in-person election. Without a State conference this year, conducting the annual business of NGAMA will certainly be challenging. More importantly, with the cancellation of Boston 2020, and other annual events being cancelled or held virtually, the Executive Committee has had insufficient opportunity to execute the duties of their office. Therefore, a change of leadership might further delay progress on the Association’s initiatives and legislative agenda.
The Executive Committee recommends canceling the 2021 Officer Elections and keeping all officers in place until the next in-person conference. As part of its due diligence, the Committee is soliciting input from the Association’s membership through an Open Comment Period, which will run from Monday, March 15 to Tuesday, March 30, 2021.
