Annual Conference

Message from the President

AZGIA Members,

The restrictions on travel and training amid the COVID 19 pandemic will not be lifted in time for us to hold our conference in June. Fortunately we have secured new dates with the same rates at the hotel for Monday September 28-Thursday October 1^st. Our only other change is we will have to cancel the 1 day basic gang class. Those who signed up for that class and paid the $50 will be refunded.

For those of you who have already signed up for the conference your registration will automatically transfer to the new dates. If you are unable to make the new dates we will refund your registration fees. If the training/travel restrictions are still in effect for the new dates all registrations will be refunded.

Registration is still open and for those wishing to use your 2019 Fiscal Year Budgets we are gladly accepting registrations. The website will be updated shortly and new fliers emailed out. We are working hard to make this transition as seamless as possible for you and your agencies.

For those who have already booked your hotel rooms for the June dates you will need to call and cancel those (no penalties). The same rates will be extended for the September dates (although the link with the hotel is not set yet).

Stay safe Stay healthy,

Mike Carleton
