President's Message - Moving Forward with KAHRMM

Presidents Message (June 2021) – Greetings fellow KAHRMM members, I hope this finds everyone doing well. The KAHRMM Board met face-to-face on May 14, 2021, in McPherson, for the first time since January 2020. It was great to reunite and see everyone attending.

During the meeting, we discussed moving forward with KAHRMM's activities, hopefully in September or October. With the elimination of the Central Plains Expo, we are planning to have an event this year to include KAHRMM members and Materials staff. We are hoping for a Golf tournament, vendor show, as well as a day and evening of education/discussion opportunities. The KAHRMM Board will continue to work out details at the June KAHRMM Board meeting. More information coming soon.

Additionally, KAHRMM would like to offer a KAHRMM-branded educational event offering continuing professional education credits. Please let any KAHRMM Board member know if you are willing to help with this program so you can be included in the planning discussions. Nothing has been set in stone, and it will take members' help to host the event.

Finally, AHRMM has moved their convention on Aug. 23-25, from Boston, MA to Nashville, TN. A few KAHRMM members are planning to attend. Scholarships available and we are trying to offer group transportation of some sort. Please stay tuned, and let me know if you are interested in attending.

Thank you for all you do!
--Mike Morgan
