Combined Summer Meeting of the Midwest, Ohio Valley & Southern Regions

The Summer Meeting of the Midwest, Ohio Valley and Southern Regions will begin the afternoon of Wednesday, August 13th. A networking event will be offered that evening, and members will gather the following morning for a time of discussion on pivotal industry and association issues. The two day meeting offers you the chance to learn more about regional and national issues and hear from key industry leaders. As this meeting is similar in size to our Spring and Fall Conventions, attendees will also reap the benefits of abundant networking opportunities. All members of the three regions are encouraged to take part!

The Combined Regions' Summer Meeting will be held in conjunction with the Safety Committees' Summer Meeting.
