County Day @ the Legislature will be Wednesday and Thursday, April 16-17, 2008. This two-day event gives county officials an opportunity to show their strength and to spread their county’s story to Alabama’s lawmakers. ALL COUNTIES SHOULD BE REPRESENTED!

Please note the change in schedule. For the last few years we have used a Tuesday-Wednesday schedule. This year we are switching to a Wednesday-Thursday schedule. Fewer organizations hold events on these days and we think it will increase legislator participation in our breakfast and allow you to have greater access to your legislators for meetings and dinner.

A Legislative Briefing will be held on Wednesday, April 16 at the Alabama Activity Center in downtown Montgomery. Registration will begin at 1 p.m. in the lobby. The Legislative Briefing will begin at 2 p.m. and will outline the current status of the ACCA’s legislative package and danger bills.

Dinner will be on your own, and we highly encourage you to begin making arrangements now to have dinner with your respective legislators. Our traditional Breakfast with Legislators will be held on Thursday morning, April 17, in the Ballroom of the Alabama Activity Center from 8-9:30
a.m. Following breakfast, we will go immediately over to the Alabama State House and spend the rest of the morning lobbying.

Registration is $25 per person, which includes Breakfast with Legislators on Thursday. Please download a registration form, and fax it to the ACCA office.

County Day @ the Legislature will require an overnight stay, so we have set up a block of rooms at the Embassy Suites Hotel in downtown Montgomery. The room rate will be $139 and you may reserve a room by calling 334-269-5055 or 1-800-Embassy or by logging onto
