SPECIAL UPDATE FOR SEATTLE ROUND TABLE: The AMGA is excited to host, in partnership with Arc'teryx, the 3rd stop of our Round Table Tour on Advocacy at The Mountaineers in Seattle, Washington. This meeting will be unique in that stakeholders from all facets of the guiding/outdoor industry will be present to engage in a broader discussion about the U.S. permitting process and the common challenges we all face as commercial operators on our public lands. The goal of this distinctive round table discussion is to identify the common challenges of guides, guide services, outdoor educators, and volunteer groups etc. as it relates to accessing/utilizing our public lands and to begin building a conversation that focuses on creating a unified voice for advancing the greater needs of the outdoor recreation service provider. We invite you to be a part of this very important dialogue. Light food and beverage will be provided. We look forward to seeing you there! Topics of Discussion: * Permitting Process on U.S. Public Lands * Needs of AMGA Stakeholders * Common Challenges & Opportunities * Strategies for Moving Towards Improved Access BE A PART OF THE CONVERSATION and COME TO THE SEATTLE ROUND TABLE Some people might be interested in what the AMGA is doing.
