Southeastern Governmental Fleet Managers Association
Sincerely,
Doug Ingle
City of Hickory
Greetings to all SGFMA Members,
Hope everyone has had a great summer.
Things are getting very busy again as vaca-
tions are coming to end and school will be
starting back up again soon. Our time is also
getting near to our upcoming conference Oc-
tober 11th - 14th at Myrtle Beach Sheraton
Convention Center.
We have a great line up of speakers and training this year and a
lot of vendors at our vendor show. We are changing things a little this
year with our vendor show covering two days instead of putting it all into
one day. You don’t want to miss out on all that our vendors have to offer.
Also we have an outing planned for Sunday evening to Ripley’s Aquarium,
and shopping at Broadway at the Beach.
Again I want to thank the SGFMA board members, committees,
and volunteers for all the hard work they have put into making this year’s
conference the best ever. Also remember our membership drive; you
could be the winner for some extra cash for the most new members you
get to sign up. Full details for the contest are on our SGFMA website.
See you at the beach.
Registration and hotel rooms are filling up fast, so please get registered
ASAP. Rates are very reasonable for the conference and hotel. You can
