A Letter From Our PresidentI hope everyone is having a productive summer and that you have or will take an opportunity to get away from work and recharge before the summer is over. I want to thank all of you for participating in the virtual Annual Summer Conference this past June. Attendance was nearly 300 and we were gratified that so many participated actively in the conference and stayed with us throughout the day.
Because of the continued persistence of the pandemic, the Board of Directors has decided to make the Fall Conference virtual as well. We also expect that we will need to have the Winter and Spring Conferences virtual as well, but we are holding out hope that we can meet in-person again next June in Ocean City for the Annual Summer Conference. I want to thank CliftonLarsonAllen, LLP for hosting and providing the on-line forum for our virtual conferences this year as they did for the Annual Summer Conference.
The Program Committee has done a tremendous job of assembling an excellent agenda for the Fall Conference including presentations by Michael Mucha, the Deputy Executive Director of the GFOA and Wanda Gibson the Prince George’s County Government Chief Information Officer on Upgrading your ERP Software.
Our Affinity Group’s are also planning their Fall meetings and you have probably already been contacted about the upcoming Tax Affinity Group’s virtual meeting and will shortly hear from the other Affinity Group on their planned offerings for later this year.
As we have for the past few years we are continuing to offer very affordable online training in Cash Management and Banking, Debt Management, Accounting and other courses to support your continued professional development.
Keep safe and we hope to see you virtually at the October 30th Fall Conference.
All the Best,
Joe Beach, President
Maryland Government Finance Officer’s Association
