We’re still finalizing the full details, but to help us plan, we’d like to know who is interested in attending.

Please respond to the following questions:

1. Will you attend the Oct. 6th MAA/MCA/MDOT Meeting & Cookout? If yes, how many people?
2. Will you stay overnight on Oct. 6th? If yes, how many rooms?
3. Will you attend the Oct. 7th MAA/MDOT Bus Tour? If yes, how many people?

We plan to stay in Alpena and will arrange a room block once we know how many attendees to expect. The drive from Alpena to the quarry is approximately 45–60 minutes. (Note: There are no suitable overnight options in Rogers City.)

We hope you’ll join us for this great opportunity to connect, learn, and enjoy some time together!
