AMERICAN ASSOCIATIONS DAY

Updated February 3, 2010

Welcome to our American Associations Day website - your web home for the only legislative action event dedicated to association management issues.

On March 23-24, 2010, join your fellow association professionals from across the country as they educate Congress on the importance of associations to the economy, learn how to best utilize their own grassroots networks for legislative success, and network with associations leaders while overlooking the US Capitol. American Associations Day is an event not to miss! Register today at www.asaecenter.org/flyin10.

Want more information about the event? Contact ASAE's Public Policy Department at (202) 626-2703 or publicpolicy@asaenet.org.

NOTE: Please pardon the simplicity of our website. ASAE is currently transitioning the fly-in information to another page, and as such will experience some web difficulties. Please accept our apologies and note you can receive any information you need by contacting us at publicpolicy@asaenet.org.
