Letter From The Executive Director & CEO
I want to express my deepest gratitude to everyone who contributed to the overwhelming success of this year’s CCM Convention. From the meticulous planning and vendor displays to the spirit-filled sessions, awards ceremony and the enlightening Hot Topic session...every aspect of the event reflected the dedication and passion of our organization.
We exist in an age where virtual connections frequently outpace in-person gatherings. The successful culmination of this year’s convention stands as a testament to present and future successes when people with common goals and challenges unite with common purpose. CCM’s Convention serves as a hub for connection, innovation, and inspiration. Whether it’s a professional gathering among municipal leaders to catch up and share best practices or to simply check out the latest opportunities our many vendors have to offer, the success of our annual event relies on the collective efforts of all who were present.
To all who attended as participants, vendors and presenters, your presence added immense value to the event. Thank you for bringing your enthusiasm, expertise, and open-mindedness. Member attendance and engagement in sessions, workshops, and networking opportunities made this event not just a gathering, but provided a feeling of true community. To our vendors showcasing innovative products and providing handson demonstrations, you helped create a dynamic atmosphere. And, to our presenters, your contributions enabled attendees to explore new possibilities and discover valuable tools and solutions.
To our sponsors, your support allowed us to reach new heights. By investing in this convention, you invested in the growth and development of everyone who attended and we cannot thank you enough for your commitment to this year’s gathering.
I would be remiss if I did not mention how incredibly impressed I am with this year’s award recipients. They were selected as a testament to their hard work, vision, and the remarkable impact each has made in their field. We are proud to celebrate your achievements today and I am excited to see what professional achievements are still to come.
And to the CCM staff, your dedication and hard work did not go unnoticed. You displayed an inspiring commitment to excellence and proved what can be achieved through the spirit of teamwork and determination. Your contributions made a significant impact and left a mark of distinction on this annual event.
As we look ahead, I am filled with optimism and excitement for what we can achieve together. Thank you once again for making this year’s convention a resounding success. Here’s to the connections we’ve made, the knowledge we’ve shared, and the bright future we are building together!
