Place
your bids now to host MACNA XX
We are now accepting bids
to host MACNA XX. The only requirement is that you must be
a member club to submit a bid. Online membership applications
can be found at
http://www.masna.org/application.php
Deadline for submissions is March 31, 2007. An all-member online meeting
will then be scheduled and votes taken on who will host. This
is to allow sufficient time to select a hotel, and develop
a logo and brochure to bring to the current year's MACNA
in September for early bird registration. This is where your
seed money is generated and can be a pretty good sum to get
you started.
Should the bid be awarded
to your Club, MASNA will provide you with a Planning Manual
with timelines, templates and databases as guidelines to help
get you started in the right direction. We're also here for
assistance any time you need it.
The most important decision
YOU will need to make if the bid is awarded to you is Hotel
selection. This determines date and fees. There is a section
on hotel selection in the new Planning Manual.
If interested, we suggest
that you and your BOD/Planning Committee take the time to
download and review the Bid, Host Agreement and condensed
version of the Planning Manual which can be found in our Archives
at http://www.masna.org/members/index.php Once
you've had a chance to review these, we be happy to answer
any questions or concerns you may have.
You will need to download and fill out this PDF and email it back to me to be considered to host a MACNA.

Good luck and
thanks for your support!
