Convention

Convention will soon be here but it is still not too late to register.  If you've been considering it, now is the time to commit.  You will have to pay a minor late fee.

Do you need a roommate?  Have a room you can share?  If so, contact your Zone Rep today who will assist in coordinating possible arrangements.

As a reminder, the Hotel Clarion by the airport is the overflow hotel currently in use.

Resolutions

Resolutions should be submitted for review at the convention soon.  You may also propose them or submit them to the appropriate committee at the convention.  Resolutions identify a concern and a solution.  This is our Association's way of bringing issues to management for revision/correction.  Submit  that burning issue today!

Committee Survey

If you've ever thought about serving on a committee now is the time to sign up either at the web site or fill out the committee survey form and email it to your Zone Rep.   Committees review and discuss resolutions as well as represent NACS with the National Office or Finance Office as appropriate.  This is an excellent way to begin your involvement in NACS or to continue your work in NACS.

State Credentials Report

Each state should send in their credentials report to their zone representative or the NACS Treasurer.  If not submitted before the convention, bring the form with you to the convention.   This certifies your membership and the delegates for the convention.

Constitutional Changes

Note the constitutional changes proposed on the NACS web site.  This will be considered at the convention so please review prior and make your positions known to your state delegates.

Note:  Forms referenced are available at the NACS web site.

They will offer their rooms at $91 per night (please mention that you are with NACS). They can be reached at 1-888-671-8008 and are located at 157 High Street; Portland, Maine. The hotel is within walking distance of the Holiday Inn By The Bay. Please be sure to call the Holiday Inn By The Bay first as there are still some rooms available.
