More than just talk

By Linda Jovanovich
HMA Executive Vice President

For the past several months we’ve been talking about our National Conference and Expo, and wow, here it is, just about a month away, now. So, if you have yet to do so, I hope you’ll finalize your plans today, and join us in Savannah.

As a memory refresher, we’ve built NatCon 2019 around the theme of “Emerging Risks.” And we’ve compiled a dais of presenters, and developed an agenda of events to aid you - and all industry stakeholders - in the management of and preparation for the uncertainties and exposures that could jeopardize decades of hard work and sacrifice.

So meet up with us at the Hyatt Regency Savannah. The stage is set. Registration totals are nearing record numbers. The Expo is a Sell-Out! All that is missing is You. Register to attend, today.

Keep in mind that we’ll have company in Savannah. The Southern Cypress Manufacturers Association (SCMA), and the Wood Component Manufacturers Association (WCMA) will again be conducting their annual meetings in conjunction with our event. That means great opportunities to network and mingle. Don’t delay.

You’ll find all of the Conference details – Registration, Program Schedule, Hotel Information, Expo Participants and Sponsors – on our HMA member website, www.HMAmembers.org. And of course, the HMA staff is available to answer any questions you may have. Call us, 412.244.0440, and we’ll help take care of business.

I’ll close with this - you certainly do not need me to remind you that these are challenging times. Just know that especially in the most challenging of times, HMA’s bottom line is the furtherance of the hardwood industry and the interests of our members. Let’s take on these “Emerging Risks,” together. See you in Savannah
