CMS leadership from Baltimore have been invited and they are awaiting authorization to attend.  A Save The Date flier is attached.  We will also have a reception on Sunday, July 13th, the night before the town hall.

This was when we thought we might only have 7 slots to fill.  Now that we have 25 provider slots, I’d suggest that we open it up to all board members.  Any slots remaining after the board members can be filled with other OPRA members.
