1. Get More Business:  We host the largest Group Leader's Marketplace with over 500 representatives attending.  We have a full ballroom of exhibitors for your Group Leaders to talk to about booking a trip on your bus to their destination.

3. Meet & Get Updates from Industry Experts:  We have the President of UMA, Stacy Tetschner, scheduled to attend as well as FMCSA representatives Chris Rotondo, Division Administrator for New Jersey and Danielle Smith, Transportation Specialist in the Passenger Division.  They have valuable information to share with us.
4. Meet Top Industry Service Providers:  Visit with fellow Association members who support you and your business with industry solutions to improve your operations.  The Mini-Marketplace will precede the Annual Association Meeting of Members & Luncheon in the same room starting at noon.  
5. Swing & Mingle: Come a day early to participate in the Golf Outing at the Atlantic City Country Club during the day and the Meet & Mingle at Bally's in the evening.  The two events provide great networking opportunities and are fun!  Need a room?  Bally's is offering a special discount for our group.

7. Network with Your Peers:  There will be plenty of opportunities to meet with your peers to exchange information and ideas over the 2-day event.  Your peers face the same challenges as you do and may offer some solutions to common ones.
8. Stay Updated on Association Efforts & Programs: Get reacquainted with the benefits the Association offers you as a business owner.  Make suggestions, as well!  
9. It's Good For You! Take time out to expand your professional perspective, knowledge and industry profile.  
10. It's Free!  Yes, there is no cost to attend for our Members!  One of our valued Casino Partners and Sponsors,  Bally's Atlantic City Hotel and Casino, is hosting our luncheon meeting.

I hope we can count on your participation!  

Wishing you all a Happy Labor Day!
