2020 NCMGMA Annual Conference Statement on Coronavirus

We understand many of you have concerns about the coronavirus (COVID-19). We want to be as transparent as possible and share information about how we are following developments relating to the coronavirus and what we are doing to prepare for our upcoming Conference in Myrtle Beach.

Our NCMGMA Annual Conference is currently scheduled to proceed May 13-15, 2020 in Myrtle Beach, SC. Since this meeting is not slated to occur for another two months – we believe that it would be premature at this juncture to postpone or cancel the meeting. Accordingly, registration for the conference remains open and you are able to make hotel reservations under the block. We do want to assure you, however, that we recognize that this is an extremely fluid and rapidly evolving situation and that NCMGMA will continue to actively monitor the situation and heed guidance provided by the CDC and NCDHHS.

Situation Monitoring

• NCMGMA is committed to hosting a safe and successful conference. Our top priority is the health and safety of all participants, including attendees, sponsors/exhibitors, staff, and others involved in the conference.
• The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has publicly deemed the health risk of coronavirus for the general American public to be low at this time.
• NCMGMA is actively monitoring CDC and HHS updates for further information.
• NCMGMA staff is working closely with our hotel partner, Marriott Myrtle Beach Resort & Spa at Grande Dunes, and local Myrtle Beach authorities to evaluate the situation and implement best practices.

We are committed to making the 2020 NCMGMA Annual Conference a safe, healthy and successful event. We will continue to keep you apprised as developments relating to the coronavirus occur. If you have any questions about the upcoming event, please contact us at info@ncmgm.org.
