Welcome to the National Meetings Committee
The National
Meetings Committee (NMC) is responsible for coordinating the site
selection and contract negotiations involving Governing Board and Annual
Meetings including responsibility for obtaining all pertinent
information from hotels and for coordinating such details as facilities,
room costs, food costs, transportation arrangements, etc. This
information, together with the recommendations of the committee, are
routinely presented to the Governing Board for approval. NMC also works
collaboratively with districts and local host committees in the process
of site selection and ultimate hosting including publicity in The ENSIGN
and all facility arrangements with the hotel. Facilities
responsibilities include ensuring that there are an adequate number of
sleeping rooms, space for exhibits and meetings, equipment needed to
facilitate the meetings, and planning for all meals and receptions. USPS will indemnify the host district against financial losses incurred
when assisting with a national meeting provided that all plans and
budgets for the meeting have been submitted and approved by the chair of
the national meetings committee.
