Summer is starting to wind down, but we are definitely still feeling the heat! I hope you all enjoy the last part of the season with family and friends.
We just held our annual summer events in late July. The BUILD-PAC Summer Social took place the evening of July 29 at the Magic City Discovery Center in Minot and the Summer Board Meeting was held at the Hampton Inn on July 30. We had a Special Guest, NAHB’s Assistant Vice President of Government Affairs and our federal lobbyist, Heather Voorman! All proceeds benefited BUILD-PAC, NAHB’s bipartisan political arm, which helps elect pro-housing, pro-business candidates to federal office. We were so happy to have local members, statewide members, staff and special guests attend. Thank you to the MAB staff and directors for helping us put on this great event!
NAHB’s Association Management Conference (AMC) is coming up in Atlanta, August 19-21. This is a professional development conference for association Executive Officers (EOs)/CEOs and staff. At AMC, EOs and HBA staff gather to learn, create a community of HBA peers to consult with, and share ideas and walk away with actionable steps to create a stronger and more profitable association.
