30th Annual Symposium Preparation

This issue of State Network News is devoted to helping you prepare for AMDA's 30th Annual Symposium to be held March 29-April 1, 2007, in Hollywood, Florida.

The meeting will feature many events involving state chapters, including:

  • State Chapter Working Session—Wednesday, March 28 from 5:00 pm–8:00 pm

  • House of Delegates Meeting with Box Lunch (Delegates only)—Thursday, March 29 from 11:30 am–1:00 pm. Preparation for the Business meeting on Saturday.

  • State Chapter Receptions/Meetings-Friday, March 30 from 6:30 pm–7:30 pm

  • State Presidents Council Breakfast and Annual Business Meeting-Saturday, March 31 from 6:30 am–8:00 am

  • House of Delegates Meeting (Delegates only)—Saturday, March 31 from 4:00 pm–6:00 pm (seating begins at 3:30 pm and doors will close promptly at 4:00 pm)

In an effort to seat delegates on time and allow the maximum amount of time scheduled for the business of the House, we ask that you confirm your delegates onsite prior to the meeting. We will have a House of Delegates Help Desk onsite Thursday and Friday to register State Delegates.

In order to have all of these meetings run as smoothly as possible, we need your input and cooperation. Please read the information included in this newsletter carefully and save it for future reference.

 

Catch the Wave — Register for the Annual Symposium by January 10, 2007 and save!
Look for AMDA's 30th Annual Symposium Registration Brochure to arrive in the mail the last week of November. Early Bird Registration can save you $50. Just register by January 10th to be eligible. Registering your interdisciplinary team can save you an additional $50 per person on top of that! For more details, see page 29 of the Registration Brochure or visit www.amdasymposium.com.

Veteran symposium attendees, please consider volunteering your symposium expertise with our first time attendees during AMDA's New Member/First Time Attendee Breakfast on Thursday morning, March 29th in Hollywood. To volunteer please check the appropriate box on the symposium registration form.

Don't forget to bring your spouse, or a guest, with you to Hollywood. AMDA staff has been growing the Companions of AMDA Symposium Travelers (C.A.S.T.) program and this year will be the best yet. A variety of tours and activities have been planned. You can find a complete list for the C.A.S.T. program on pages 26-27 of the Registration Brochure or visit www.amdasymposium.com.

It's easy to registeronline at www.amdasymposium.com. Or you can complete the registration form in the back of the AMDA Registration Brochure and fax or mail it to AMDA. Please contact Laurie Wilson, Registrar, at lpwilson@amda.com, or call 410-992-3116 with any registration questions.

Remember, not all state chapter members are members of AMDA. AMDA members save $200 in registration fees vs. non-AMDA members, as well as increase your state's representation in the House of Delegates. If you would like to have AMDA membership information available at state meetings, please contact Nicole Germain, Membership Coordinator, at ngermain@amda.com, or call her directly at 410-992-3114.
