| 22 | Budget: |
| 23 | No real numbers yet. Ideally all staff can come to the conference. |
| 24 | If we hold a fundraiser, the money would either be used to offset the additional lodging/travel expense to come to the AMC a day early for the networking session OR to provide travel to support to members traveling from Mexico. |
| 25 | Another option for funds is reaching out to APC, particularly around international travel assistance. We could also see if they want to co-organize the networking session with us - depending on relevance, etc. |
| 26 | We could look into renting a house in Detroit where we could offer cheap space to others attending the conference. |
