As a member organization, MAR’s priority is the health and safety of all our members. With this priority and the current Coronavirus Pandemic, MAR is canceling the 2020 Regional Meetings and will hold small Informational Meetings in multiple locations with limited attendance. With the MAR Annual Meeting and the MAR Regional Meetings being canceled for 2020, the By-Laws require members to vote on the President and the Secretary, these votes will be held at the Informational Meetings. At the Informational Meetings, compliance with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines will be followed. Social distancing will be required and the site size will determine the number of members who will be allowed at each of the Informational Meetings. In order to assure MAR is in compliance and ensuring the safety of the attendees and MAR staff, MAR members MUST wear masks at each meeting, temperatures will be taken prior to entrance into the meeting and members must register prior to the meeting for a specific location and time. Anyone who has not registered will not be allowed into the Informational Meeting. MAR will provide masks and disinfected toilettes for attendees use. Below is a list of the dates and locations of the Informational Meetings with the number of MAR members allowed to attend and the last day you can register for the meeting. Anyone who has NOT registered will NOT be allowed in the meeting.
NOTE: If no one has registered at least two days prior to the scheduled meeting, MAR will cancel the Informational Meeting. Members can call the MAR Office or check the MAR website for the most up-to-date information.
