What is the Pre-Conference Gathering, and why should I attend?
There will be three Pre-Conference Gathering sessions held virtually via Zoom webinar. These sessions will inform delegates about the 2025 budget proposal, the nominations report, the consent calendar, and any other items in the Conference Workbook. This will be an opportunity to discuss the legislation happening during the conference. There will be little time during the actual session for discussion about these issues. Participants must take this time to get their questions answered. Connection information will be sent via e-mail to each registered participant in advance of your session.
