SET TO BROADEN REACH FOR 2017
Detailed planning is underway for the 2016 CSA Annual Conference which will kick off with the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Antigua on Friday, October 21 and will move straight into the Regatta Organisers’ Conference for the duration of the weekend through Sunday, October 23.
As the conference grows in size each year, for 2016 we have moved the venue to the Jolly Beach Resort Hotel in Jolly Harbour. Elite Island Resorts have recently acquired management of the hotel and with a full conference facility in place it will mean that we have separate private rooms for each of the sessions taking place concurrently.
Over the past two years the Conference has evolved from what was primarily regatta organisers sharing ideas to hosting separate workshops and sessions where measurers, youth development advocates and other sailing professionals as well as regatta directors can network and discuss the opportunities and challenges involved in the sport of sailing and how they impact the region.
For the first time in 2016 emphasis will be put on encouraging all MNA’s to attend the Conference which has become such an important event on our annual calendar to help further develop their regional networking opportunities. We look forward to working together with all members and conference participants for the benefit of all.
To register please visit www.csaconference. The website includes all the information about registration as well as accommodation. To help us gauge interest in different areas of the conference we have created a membership survey which specifically asks for input on the survey. We would appreciate if you can take five minutes to fill the survey in. For any other enquiries please email vp@caribbean-sailing.com.
