The Fall Conference committee has put together a fantastic program with a theme of Challenge Yourself in Change. There is no doubt municipalities must balance constant change and innovation in order to evolve to meet the needs of their communities. The sessions at our conference will give you new ideas, test your old way of thinking, and leave you feeling energized and motivated to tackle the important projects in your municipality.

Flu Shots

AMANS is bringing in a nurse from the NSHA to administer the flu shot. The flu shots will take place in the back of Digby Hall, behind a skirted screen. People can fill out a form at the conference, or bring one pre-filled out.  pdf Download the flu shot form here (125 KB) .
