MARAMA will offer support to cover the cost of room and tax for up to 2 staff members per MARAMA member agency for the nights of February 24th (if needed) and February 25th. Supported attendees are responsible for all incidentals and travel, including a $10.00 (plus tax) fee for self-parking. Overnight support is not available to those who live within 50 miles of the course location. If additional or alternative support is needed, pre-approval is necessary and a request must come from your agency’s Air Director (or their designee) and emailed to MARAMA’s Executive Director, Susan Wierman (swierman@marama.org), as well as MARAMA’s Training Coordinator, Sue Dilli (sdilli@marama.org), prior to the event. A list of what type of support is needed, an estimate of additional costs, and the reason for the support is essential to include.
