Members of NVMTA build friendships and professional relationships with each other through social activities!
Please join us!
We have a number of social activities in various locations around the area. See the table below.
Discussion Group: If you’d like to join a discussion group, we will begin during the first week of January. This will be through email with a prompt question each week through the end of March.
Hopefully we can get to know each other better and share some things we have learned. To participate, please fill out this brief form: Discussion Group.
