This season CGA is hosting a gathering in each region (Southern, Central, Northern) to give members of each region the opportunity to learn about CGA and get any questions answered, comments and concerns heard and solutions received. The Board of Governors understands that not all members can make it to the membership meetings and want to ensure all members feel connected to CGA.

The Southern District gathering will be up first. The hope for all region visits is that members can feel connected, engaged and EXCITED about CGA!
