Warren Rothe
Chair, Professional Development Committee
At the time of writing, the Professional Development Committee is in full swing putting together an array of Summer Workshop content that promises to immerse all attendees in the conference’s themes of wellness and technology. More information on sessions, speakers, and activities will be announced shortly. I’d like to thank the work of the Manager Activity Sub-Committee for their work on making sure that we take advantage of the unique opportunities that exist in Marquette, particularly where wellness is concerned. Sean Hobbins, Marquette Assistant City Manager, has been a tremendous help to the PDC, and I am grateful for his service!
Hotel information is now available at the MME website here. Be sure to sign up as MME ventures north of the bridge for just the fourth time in its history!
