Where is the Meeting Information on the Web Site?
In order to provide to you, the viewer of the NMBCA, a more positive interaction with the NMBCA Web Site and Web Designer, it is necessary to inform you of how information is placed on the web site. All information regarding our Meetings information is not generated by the Web Site Designer - rather, it is only provided to him by those in leadership who are charged with this function. Conversely, the Web Site Designer can only post information that is provided to him in a timely manner. (Simply put, if it's not provided, it cannot or it has been determined that it should not be posted). Although there may be some frustration in the process, please understand that the Web Site Designer can only place information that is provided to him by the Leadership of the Convention. Thank you for your continued support and concern for our convention.
