Charges:

 

1

Select a primary site and a back-up site for the 2008 ATA Midyear Meeting.  If possible, these sites should be selected from the list of cities approved by the Trustees at the August 2003 meeting. These cities were the highest ranked cities from the membership survey conducted in 2003.

 

2

Coordinate with the 2006 Midyear Planning Committee to ensure that a wide selection of potential sites are included in the 2006 Midyear evaluation form.

 

3

Report the selection to the President and the Board of Trustees by their August 2006 meeting.  The Board will then approve the selection by a majority vote.  If the selection is not approved, it will be sent back to the committee.  The committee will then submit another site for the Board's approval.

 

4

Consider and recommend to the trustees a process for setting the registration fees for upcoming meetings.  Include consideration of past costs and the impact of meeting costs on attendance.

 

5

Consider how the efforts of this committee can increase the public persona of the ATA
