Vice Chairman Alan Freese - Invite to the 2018 CMSA Convention

Please join me and my family, April 17-22 at the Hyatt Regency Sacramento for the CMSA’s 100th anniversary convention. The lineup for our trade association’s centennial event is second to none. It will be the pinnacle of all conventions. From our golf tournament at the beautiful Teal Bend Golf Club, to the young professionals meeting, exhibitors welcome reception, general session meetings, raffle prizes, van line panel, military breakout session and keynote speaker, Matt Booth, a communication and positive attitude expert (something I know I could use help with). Bed sheets will be in high demand as this year’s Friday night “Toga” themed dinner party is going to rock and roll. Let’s not forget that the CMSA is also going to give away $100,000 in scholarships this year at Saturday’s Gold Rush Awards Luncheon. The CMSA continues to be the industry leader in scholarships, Special Olympics’ support and Chairman’s Choice Charity awards.

Please take advantage of the special gathering of all our industry has to offer from movers, van lines, carriers, vendors and associate members. If you’re like me, this is the only vacation I get to see throughout the calendar year. The Hyatt Regency Sacramento is located square downtown, just a short walk to the State Capitol, Golden 1 Arena and many Old Town tourist venues. This is a great opportunity to catch up with old friends and associates, as well as forging new ones.

In closing, I would ask that you attend the 100th Chairman’s Dinner Ball. This will without a doubt be the Epic event of the convention with myself being the incoming chairman. This is truly a great honor for myself, my family, friends, employees and associates. It is my hope that all of you will attend and help us celebrate this milestone achievement of the CMSA. Please register early for the convention as well as reserve rooms; they will be at a premium for this once in a lifetime event. I look forward to celebrating with all of you soon, Alan Freese.
