[SGMP] Register Now for Visit Orlando 15 October Program, SGMP 2025 NEC Scholarship, Storm Check-In

Tue Oct 8 08:02:14 CDT 2024

Good morning,

First, I hope that you and those you care about will be safe from this latest storm. The impacts of Helene were far-reaching and unfathomable, and now our state is dealing with unprecedented Milton. After the storm passes, please respond to me (just me) to let me know if you are okay from the storm and if not, if there is anything we can do to support you.

Next, I am excited about our 15 October program which is hybrid as always…if you cannot attend in person, plan to join us virtually. Please register ASAP so Visit Orlando can have a correct count for the pampering they plan to do for us!

About our Scholarship Program
The Rance R. Willis Planner Development Scholarship program is named in honor of our 1989 Sam Gilmer Planner of the Year awardee and national president from 1991-1993. The Society of Government Meeting Professionals (SGMP) Gilmer Institute of Learning provides financial assistance to meeting planner members attending the National Education Conference (NEC). Scholarship awards are available to eligible planners from revenue raised through the Silent Auction held at NEC. Scholarships are awarded on a point-based system as evaluated by the Gilmer Institute of Learning Trustees, and the number of scholarships awarded is based on available funding. 

Scholarships may cover part, or all of your registration, lodging, and travel expenses for the 2025 National Education Conference. 

Many SGMP Chapters also offer scholarship funding. Chapter scholarship programs open following the national scholarship deadline. Be sure to check with your chapter on the application process, deadlines, and additional information.

DEADLINE: October 30, 2024
