YEAR 31-35 | 2022-2026
YEAR 31 - 2022
This year was our first year back in person since the COVID19 pandemic started. We were challenged to hold and in person event while meeting State and County Health Department mandates. We developed a mask wearing policy for the public areas that was adhered to by all. This was not without some controversy but after the conference no one came down with Covid in the next week. We introduced online registration and online payment through PayPal or credit card this year which simplified the registration process. Our selected Al-Anon speaker Nansea B. from Naples, Florida had a medical emergency (not Covid) and returned home. Her replacement, a recognized speaker attending the conference, stepped up to fill the spot.
