Announcements

On July 24, MARAC’s Executive Committee, with the approval of the MARAC Steering Committee, voted to cancel our spring 2021 meeting in Saratoga Springs, NY. This is now the third in-person meeting cancellation we have faced since April. This was not an easy decision, however, as many of you know, pulling together an in-person meeting takes almost a year to do, and the Program Committee was running up against some deadlines. We made the decision together to cancel the in-person meeting so that we could focus on a robust and inspiring all-virtual conference in April 2021.

I want to thank everyone who worked to plan our Saratoga Springs meeting and specifically our Local Arrangements Committee Co-Chairs Melissa McMullen and Jamie Brinkman as well as our Program Committee Co-Chairs Gregory Wiedeman and Rachel Appel. These committees had already put a great deal of thought and effort into what I am sure would have been a wonderful meeting.

There will be more information forthcoming about our April 2021 virtual conference. We are in the process of assembling a group to lead the coordinating committee.

Thank you again for your understanding, and I hope everyone stays safe and healthy.

Sincerely,
Jennie Levine Knies
MARAC Chair 2020-2021
