2nd QTR meeting on Thursday, 15 January 2009 at:

Now here’s the twist! So that we can better plan for the upcoming April AACA/AHF
Conference, we will be meeting at the conference location in Orange Beach,
Alabama!!! This will be great for everyone located in the southern part of the
state but we know it will be quite a drive for those in the northern half.
For those AHF members who cannot attend, our meeting minutes will be posted to
the website afterwards so you can keep up with legislative priorities,
conference planning, and other AHF issues.
We will be meeting at:
