2021 BOARD OF DIRECTORS MIDYEAR MEETING RECAP
Back Together After a Year This year’s Board of Directors Midyear Meeting was held at the beautiful Eau Palm Resort in Palm Beach, Florida. Situated on a private beach on seven acres of oceanfront with lush tropical gardens, breathtaking ocean views and cooling tropical breezes, the Eau Palm was the perfect place for everyone to get together for the first time in a year. This annual planning meeting is very important as Board members meet to discuss financial matters, education resources, government affairs issues and other programs for the association. This is also a great opportunity for the Board to share key industry knowledge to ensure another successful year for our industry and all our members. We thank our board members who were able to take time out of their busy schedules to get together. Palm Beach weather was warm (for the first day at least), and the area was beautiful - a perfect combination. A special thanks to all our sponsors, whose continued support makes this meeting possible.
