National Convention Steering Committee Update

Dear Members,

I want to formally introduce the National Convention Steering Committee (NCSC). Formed under the 2nd Vice President, the committee will provide a continuity resource for the society and membership in support of the National Convention. The NCSC’s goal is to create and maintain an online resource and standardized process that increases convention bids and enables a seamless transition from year to year for clubs hosting the National Convention. The committee will serve as a mechanism for continuous improvement and capture convention best practices for implementation.

We've just started, and 2023 will be a busy year. Please take a look at the attached documents to learn more about the committee, and we look forward to providing more resources...
