Hotels:

The 2023 CAMA Annual Conference and Annual General Meeting will be held at the Deerhurst Resort, Ontario from May 29-31, 2023. CAMA has negotiated a Conference rate at the Deerhurst Resort. In order to ensure the booking process goes smoothly please read the details in full and make note of all deposit and cancellation policies for this property. We hope that this process will encourage municipalities to book only those guest rooms that are needed so that more delegates will have the opportunity to stay at the official Conference hotel. If rooms are cancelled right before the Conference it puts the Association at risk of attrition charges.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
  • Name changes on a reservation can be made up to the date of arrival.
  • All reservations can be made by calling the Reservations Department at 1-800-461-4393 and identify yourself as being with the “2023 CAMA Conference”.

  • Cut Off Date: Sunday, April 30th, 2023.
  • Deposit and Cancellation Policy: The hotel will charge a one-night deposit at the time of your reservation. Please ask for a receipt for this deposit at the time of booking.

    Conference Registration for Members in Transition

    Going in to “transition” is a very difficult situation that all too many members face at some point in their local government careers. Any job change is difficult, but when it’s forced on someone for reasons that often have nothing to do with their job performance it can be traumatic.

    If you are a “Member in Transition” and have been fired or forced to resign your position in local government and are now “in transition”, CAMA will provide a complimentary registration for you. Hotel and travel expenses are at your cost. Register under the “Members In Transition” category on-line, but CAMA’s membership department must have been notified of your status for you to use this option.

    Payment Methods:

    VISA and MasterCard payments will be accepted with your online registration.
    If paying by cheque, please include a copy of your registration confirmation, and make payable to 'CAMA', send to:

    Ms. Jennifer Goodine
    CAMA National Office
    PO Box 128, Station A
    Fredericton, NB

    Registration Deadline:

    The Canadian Association of Municipal Administrators (CAMA) is committed to the highest standard of respect and dignity at each one of its events. All exhibitors, delegates, speakers, sponsors and volunteers at the 2023 Annual Conference and Trade Show must comply with CAMA's Code of Conduct. The code mandates that attendees conduct themselves in a safe and welcoming manner—free from harassment or discrimination. This core ethical standard applies to all facets of the conference, including social events, study tours, workshops, plenaries, meetings, trade show hall and social gatherings where delegates, exhibitors, and sponsors are in attendance. CAMA does not tolerate harassment of any kind. Should you be subject to—or witness any—inappropriate behaviour or threatening behaviour or language, please notify CAMA staff immediately. Anyone found to be acting in such a manner will have their registration revoked and asked to leave the premises immediately.
