Are you interested in attending the Annual GAA Conference at no cost to you?
The Susan Hewett Annual GAA Scholarship Award will be awarded to one Owner/Manager and is up for grabs!
This scholarship was created in 2013 to honor the MGAA Executive Director, Susan Hewett for over 25 years of dedication and service to MGAA, and was announced at the 25th Anniversary of MGAA. Susan was a vital part of the success and growth of MGAA for over 30 years. This scholarship has provided the winner with registration costs for the conference, as well as travel & lodging.
We would like to recognize the sponsors of the Susan Hewett Annual GAA Scholarship Award as we are so grateful for their continued support of MGAA.
