CEAM INVITES YOU TO THE 2022 CONFERENCE!

City Engineers Association of Minnesota (CEAM) is pleased to invite you to ourAnnual Conference, which will occur January 26-28, 2022. We are excited to statethat, at the time this brochure is being prepared, the intent is to hold the 2022Conference IN PERSON at the Earle Brown Heritage Center!

Our last conference was forced to be held in a virtual format due to thecircumstances of the pandemic. The virtual conference offered some benefits ofconvenience, and we were fortunate the conference logistics went flawlessly.While the virtual conference was successful, the social interaction was not thesame - so, we are hopeful and very much looking forward to seeing our friendsand colleagues in person at the January 2022 conference!

CEAM is working closely with the Earle Brown Heritage Center regardingconsiderations due to COVID. All requirements of Earle Brown Heritage Center,the City of Brooklyn Center, State of Minnesota, and any other applicableguidance for issues such as masks, vaccinations, and tests will be followed. Weare eager for the opportunity to gather at the conference, but we want to ensureall proper protocols are followed and the safety and concerns of attendees areaddressed. The registration materials will note the current conferencerequirements and will be updated as new information is received. In theunfortunate event it becomes impossible or impractical to hold the conference inperson, we would convert to an entirely virtual format as we did last year. Fingerscrossed and positive thoughts that we will be able to hold the in-personconference as planned!

So much has been written and said about the pandemic that little needs to beadded here. Each of us has had their own experience over this difficult andchallenging time. As an organization, and specifically as a Conference PlanningCommittee, CEAM suffered a significant loss with the passing of Steve Klein inDecember 2020. Steve had been on the Conference Planning Committee fordecades and served as the chair for many years. Steve’s efforts, input, guidance,and most of all friendship were invaluable to CEAM and we are better for it. Muchof what the conference is today is owed directly to Steve.

But with each new dawn, time continues, and we are one day closer to the end ofthe pandemic, and one day closer to our next conference! After many years ofpartnership, the University of Minnesota has ended their service to supportexternal conferences. (continued on next page)

CONT.)CEAM thanks and greatly appreciates the support and service of the U of Mduring that time. We are happy to introduce our members to our new planningteammates, Fusion Learning Partners. Fusion brings great energy and ideas tothe table, and we are enthused by the possibility of expanding opportunities forthe members of CEAM.

Our conference program once again offers a high-quality, varied selection ofgeneral and concurrent sessions. We will be continuing the popular “101 Series”of concurrent sessions and will of course offer an hour of Ethics training withinthe program. The conference keynote is Avish Parashar, a motivational,energetic, improvisational speaker who should set a great tone for the program!

We can’t wait to see you all in January! On behalf of the Conference PlanningCommittee, welcome!
