NAAA eNewsletter - 05/21/2020

The 2020 NAAA Ag Aviation Expo is set to take place in Savannah December 7‒10. We are implementing multiple attendee protections at the conference per the recommendation of health and safety officials.

With that said, we most value your perspective on attending the convention this year in Savannah. If you have not already completed the survey that you received on Tuesday, please click here and take a few minutes to answer this short survey regarding the December Ag Aviation Expo. We recognize your perspective may change over the next few months, but we wanted to gauge your current attitude about our event.

NAAA has created a COVID-19 Resources webpage to provide you with information regarding the aerial application industry and this pandemic. We appreciate your time and hope to see you in December!
