Here are some more pics from the conference.

Thank you to everyone that attended the conference this year!  We are already working on the conference for 2025 so mark your calendars as busy the week of October 12 to 17, 2025. 

A special thank you goes to Eric Hall and Rick Krueger for your time and dedication in making this years conference happen.  It wasn't easy and we had some trying times but, in the words of Rocky Balboa, "We did it Adrian"!

A special thank you goes out to Jeff Bober who continuously takes time from his schedule to proctor the EVT tests.  Without you we would not have multiple dates throughout the year at which we could take our tests.

And last, but certainly not least, thank you to Mike Smollen for being our president for the last 4 years.  We thank you for your time and effort you put into IFAMA and leading us through the Covid years.

Congratulations to Ted Ellison on being elected the new President of IFAMA.  Our Treasurer, who decided to retire, ran for reelection and was reelected, so congratulations to Dan Marcinkowsi who will be starting his 25th year as Treasurer for IFAMA.
