Mills, and everyone - That is exactly the perception we, the BOD, have about these events. On average, it will cost a person about $1,000 to attend one of these events. This includes travel expenses, lodging, meals, and spending money on other sundry things. In this economy most people have to decide which one they will be attending.... if any.
We do the very best we can to try to determine where to hold the Annual Meeting and how it will give the PGCA Membership the very best "bang for the buck" and we always keep our fingers crossed that we have made the right decision for the majority of Members. It is a very tough economy and everyone is affected in some way.
