{UAH} Calling all Cities: Apply today to host the 2020 UNAA Convention

UNAA Leaders.

I have a bit of a problem with this request for proposals.  One of the long time goals of the UNAA convention is to give UNAA members the opportunity to travel to different parts of North America and thus make the organization more inclusive.  So far, California, Illinois, Massachusets and Texas have each hosted a UNAA convention 3 times while there are many other states who have not hosted one even once.  Past conventions in states like Nevada, Florida and Louisiana have already proven that a host city does not have to have a large Uganda community to host a successful UNAA convention.

As such, I would like to ask you folks to consider taking the convention to some state and city where it has never been held.  Possible attractive destinations include Charleston (North Carolina), Birmingham (Alabama), Nashville (Tennessee), Indianapolis (Indiana), Pittsburg (Pennsylvania), Kansas City (Missouri), or any of the many other worthy cities out there.  As a long shot, maybe even somewhere in Hawaii.

Regards.

Dear UNAA Members, 

The Executive Committee of the Ugandan North American Association (UNAA) hereby notifies you of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the host city of the 32nd Annual UNAA Convention in 2020.
 
The criteria to select the the host city will include but not be limited to;

  2. All signatories to this proposal must be current UNAA members in good standing
  3. The proposal must clearly state the understanding of the Constitutional requirement that ownership and management of the Annual UNAA Convention will entirely and at all times rest with the Executive Committee of the Ugandan North American Association. The Hosting Organizing Committee will act as the agent of the National Executive Committee. Any and all contractual and fiscal obligations can only be entered into and assented to by the National Executive Committee using clearly laid down constitutional provisions.
  4. The proposal must identify any experience any key officers and leaders of the proposing entity have in hosting a UNAA Convention. The number of past UNAA conventions members of the supporting community have attended either individually or collectively should be stated.
  5. The proposal must describe the proposing host city and list its unique attributes and why the proposers believe their city deserves to host this particular convention.

The proposal must list several hotel locations suggested as the convention venue and list their individual attributes. A UNAA Convention typically requires a hotel which has more than 500 rooms with a ballroom of at least 11,000 sq. ft. and 6 meeting rooms each of which can seat 100 people theatre style.
  7. In line with the UNAA Constitution, no member of the Hosting Organizing Committee will seek compensation or be compensated for voluntary services rendered to UNAA resulting from organizing the UNAA Convention. However pre-approved out of pocket expenses incurred by a member for a service to benefit UNAA directly will be reimbursed.
