2022 ANNUAL MEETING
** COVID-19 Considerations**
While we are moving forward with an in-person meeting, the reality is that we remain in a global pandemic. As such, we will monitor trends and recommendations from city, state, and federal agencies related to in person gatherings. We anticipate having onsite precautionary measures that may include, but are not limited to, required masks and social distancing.
Additionally - while we are hopeful that this will not be the case, we cannot rule out a necessary shift to a fully remote meeting should infection and transmission trends dictate such. We will do our best to make that determination early, however, participants should be aware of this possibility and plan travel accordingly.
