It is membership and CGFM renewal time…Auto-renewals will process around March 17. Please consider all the value included in the membership fee as you are renewing. The value you get in free CPE from AGA National brings in more value than the $100 renewal. They have updated/streamlined the My AGA area. Please take a moment to verify your email address! This is the primary way National Office and the chapter reach you. If you use your work email address, consider adding a secondary email address with your personal email. As a note for people who joined during the year—the fee at joining was a part year amount and this billing will put you on the annual cycle.

Our friends at the AGA Central Ohio Chapter reached out and asked about partnering on an event. They have set up a GASB 103 implementation session for Tuesday, April 7, 1:00 CT Please see the registration information on page 3 of the Monthly Footnotes. Free for AGA members!!!!

Don’t miss out—FREE national events coming up soon

We are very close to completing the agenda for the Annual Symposium on May 13. I think you will find this to be an interesting day. We hope to have the website updated and information sent out by the middle of next week. For now, Save the Date! The cost will remain at $55 for members and $110 for non-members.
