Dear EAC and Directors,

They are looking for people in the West, in particular, Arizona, to assist with the 2026 National Urban Extension Conference in Detroit.

Any recommendations? Any volunteers?

________________________________
Hi Ed,

I hope all is going well for you.  I'm working on trying to add a couple more people to the 2026 National Urban Extension Conference planning committee to work on the conference program.  I'm particularly interested in trying to add another person or two from the West, since the West will host NUEC in 2028.  Might there be someone from Arizona that you could suggest?

I have three areas that I'm trying to add a person or two too: speakers, workshops on the move, and the educational workshop track.  MSU Extension is providing event management staff support, so the speaker and workshops on the move work will mostly be idea generation. Whereas, the educational workshop track will be a bigger lift.  That group will be calling for, accepting, reviewing and notifying people of their acceptance. Ramona is chairing that group and she's been involved with the workshop track for the last two NUEC's so she is well organized.

Any thoughts?
Marie
