On behalf of the North Carolina League of Transportation & Logistics I hope each one of you and your families are doing well.

The reality of the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic is that it is not going away anytime soon and there are so many gray areas that make it almost impossible to have our Annual Conference this year. So, the Officers and Board of Governors decided that it is in the best interest of attendees and sponsors to cancel the 2020 Annual Conference.

The Spring Meeting at the Speedway Club in Charlotte was also cancelled recently.

Here are facts that had an impact on the decision to cancel.

·   We have a lot of guests and members who are over 60 and we need to keep them safe.

·   We still do not know about large group meetings for any event in the near future.

·   We have many Companies that will have travel restrictions the rest of this year for their employees.

·   Some companies will not allow their employees to attend meetings right now. Anticipated attendance was a factor.

I have been calling our Annual Conference Sponsors who have send us Sponsorship money. I asked if they would be okay to rollover the money till next year and most so far have said yes. I will be following up with all Sponsors.

If you have paid your registration fees for the Conference, you can roll your registration over to next year or let me know and the League will reimburse you.

The 2021 dates for the Annual Conference are June 10 through June 12. I will try to keep the same agenda for next year, and of course the effects of the Coronavirus pandemic will be a major topic.

Also, if you have made room reservations for this year's Conference please cancel them.

Subject to change, we  plan to have our Scholarship Golf Outing and Fall meeting this year.

Send me an email if you have questions.
