Just finished up our 6th (in 3 years) CAB! We have been holding our last few CAB’s at our members headquarters - we now have a fun competition between the members on who will be the next “host” of the event! If you aren’t doing this - think about - it will definitely help with your budget also!!

love that idea - are most of your CAB members in the same geographic area? or are the members spread out nationally?

Maria Braune May 08, 2025 at 01:53 PM

spread out! we have between 9-11 members joining and we have some on each of the coasts!

Are you covering travel and lodging costs for all members?

Maria Braune May 08, 2025 at 02:08 PM

@Ryan Gutierrez, Community Agility Specialist - yes! we pay for travel and lodging - we also send out Uber cards for travel back/ forth to the airport

If comfortable what is your budget range with the program?

We fly everyone in the day before the meeting - have a fun excursion (we just did the RCA Studio tour in Nashville) + a welcome dinner. Meeting the next day until around 1 pm - end with lunch and then send them off on their way!
