Good Morning NEOA, Thank you to everyone who attended the Zoom meeting last week. I appreciated your time, thoughts, and insight into the planning process for the 2024 conference in Vermont. Moving forward, we will meet monthly until January, when we will switch to a bi-monthly meeting schedule until the conference in April. If you would like to be a part of the planning, please fill out the attached survey to be added to the spreadsheet. Our next meeting will be on Friday, October 20, at 9 a.m. via Zoom. All are welcome! I will send out an agenda closer to the day. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdqCeHaMgIQLfuls-EPIHlqLUF3tbqvG2hsEgPlXeGPVEz4yg/viewform?usp=pp_url There are a lot of moving parts to planning a conference.
