NAMB Annual Conference and Board Installation

NAMB Annual Conference and Board Installation will be taking place on June 22 and 23, 2012 in Indianapolis, IN. We will be having a Board Meeting and a Delegate Council meeting while we are there. It is a short one, but we will make every effort to make it a memorable one. On Friday, we will be going to the Indianapolis Indians baseball game, then on Saturday we will have a session for all new Board members and Committee chairs. The Delegate Council meeting and Board meeting will be in the afternoon followed by the President's Reception in the evening. So start making those reservations to come to INDY and let's have a great time as we make plans for the upcoming year.
