MMBA

by **TESCMarne** » December 9th, 2008, 2:26 pm

February 22nd. Mark your calendars folks, the annual meeting/expo is changing its date and its location to the Lansing Center right in downtown Lansing.

Lansing will serve as a more statewide centralized location within nearly an hour of Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Ann Arbor, Royal Oak, Mount Pleasant, and Flint. The new location will hopefully better represent the MMBA as the statewide organization it is and also offers us a chance to bring in legislators or other government officials in a professional setting.

In addition to the location, The Lansing Center is also right off the freeway with plenty of parking, the space is nearly twice as big, has HEAT, and a bar on site. For vendors there is an easy access loading dock and a much nicer setting.

Stay tuned for other changes including an advocacy round table, silent auction items, and contests.

Marne,
Will be able to bring the Metro South Chapter trailer into the show area to display??

I think this is a great move. This should help with what has appeared (to those of us living on the west side of the state) as an east side bias. Thank you for making this move.

You got a guest speaker lined up yet or are you taking nominations ?

Well I am working on a pretty awesome guest speaker, but I am happy to hear other suggestions if he should fall through!

Nah....I'm not interested. I'd rather watch a one legged sloth do sprints.

That's right on the River Trail, too. The River Trail's parking lot is just off 127 north, Kalamazoo exit. Might want studded tires in February, tho. I'll probably ride there...
