Annual Fall Convention

Each year, the Association of Municipal Administrators, Nova Scotia (AMANS) hosts our flagship event, the AMANS Fall Convention. We welcome municipal decision-makers from all corners of Nova Scotia for three action-packed days of professional development, collaboration, and networking.
