DCA Restructures Industry Meetings
(UC) — The Distribution Contractors Association has cancelled its planned Mid-Year and Fall Meetings and will hold a combined event later in the fall.
Robert Darden, Executive Vice President for the organization issued a statement to members:
‘In light of the continuing Covid-19 pandemic and state travel restrictions, the DCA Board of Directors has decided to cancel the Mid-Year Meeting schedule for mid-July and the Fall Meeting scheduled for late October.
This was not an easy decision, but ultimately the public health and safety of our members, families, speakers, and staff led us to conclude that cancelling these face-to-face meeting was the safe and responsible action.
In the place of these two major DCA events, a “Mid - Fall Meeting” has been scheduled for Monday, October 5 – Thursday, October 8, 2020 at the Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC.
This event will be a combination of the Mid-Year and Fall Meetings and be held at the same hotel where Mid-Year was planned to occur.
More details will be forthcoming and posted on the DCA website. Registration will open later this summer.
In the meantime, please continue to stay safe and healthy.’
