The INGAA Foundation Planning and Strategy Meeting is coming up on August 7th – 8th at the Samoset Resort in Rockport, Maine (www.samosetresort.com). The Samoset Resort offers a first-class meeting facility and a championship golf course on 230 oceanside acres. 

The August Meeting agenda is as follows:

·        Registration starts on Thursday the 7th, at 2:30 p.m.
