Good evening, Minnesota Chapter Advisors:

Please find below information and updates you should be aware of for NLC next week:

STATE MEETINGS

All state meetings are scheduled for 6:30 pm-7:30 pm on Wednesday, May 7th, meaning these meetings are to slated to take place before the Opening General Session.

NOTE: For those state associations assigned to the Omni ChampionsGate and World Center Marriott, please share with your delegations that there will be a wait after the Opening General Session concludes as shuttle buses transfer attendees back to their respective hotels. For those attendees who are unable to immediately board a shuttle bus, it is highly encouraged to explore the Gaylord Palms Resort and Convention Center to become acclimated with where competitions and conference activities will be held throughout the week. The final shuttle buses for the evening will depart the Gaylord Palms Convention Center bus loop at 11:30 pm. 

STATE CAUCUSES

As a reminder, the Secondary Division will not hold a primary election or campaign rally. Given this, the state caucuses for the Secondary Division will be held from 7:00 pm-9:30 pm. 

Since the time lapse between the Secondary Division Business Meeting and State Caucuses is shorter than normal (approx.. 1.5 hours), the Citrus Ballroom (Level Two) will be made available as a holding room for those voting delegates who wish to wait until the caucuses begin. This is a great opportunity for students to network with their peers from other state associations!

Please let me know if you have any questions with the above information. More information will be shared as it becomes available.
