Date & Time

Thursday, September 17 – VIRTUAL

7:00 PM

Colorado is big. Your access to CCA updates shouldn’t depend on your ZIP code. From Grand Junction to Greeley, Durango to Denver, the Annual Meeting is coming to you.

We love tradition. We also love attendance. Attend from your office, your kitchen table, or somewhere between patient appointments.

No hotel map. No parking. No guessing “which breakout room is this?”

This year’s CCA Annual Meeting is online so more members can be part of the conversation.

We are pleased to welcome non-members who would like to attend and learn more about CCA’s work. As this is the official Annual Meeting of the association, voting and participation in formal discussion will be reserved for current CCA members.

We appreciate everyone’s interest and look forward to sharing updates on CCA’s priorities, advocacy efforts, and work on behalf of the profession.

Agenda

Final agenda will be posted here prior to the meeting and distributed to attendees the day of the meeting.

Elections

Each year, certain districts and positions are up for election. This year, we have six candidates to fill five Director seats, and one candidate each for Treasurer and Vice-President. The CCA’s bylaws state, “The election for Directors shall be conducted as determined by the Board. If only one candidate is nominated, that candidate may be elected through acclamation.” Therefore, the following candidates will be elected through acclamation at the annual meeting.

Officer Candidates

  • Vice President – Dr. Rob Anderson, D.C.
  • Treasurer – Dr. Brandon McCormick, D.C.

Director Candidates – voting will take place via secure electronic voting software during the Annual Business Meeting. Per our bylaws, the five candidates who receive the highest number of votes will be elected to the Board.

  • Dr. Chris Angello, D.C.
  • Dr. Shannon Bundy, D.C.
  • Dr. Jane Brewer, D.C.
  • Dr. Kathryn “Katie” Decker, D.C.
  • Dr. Riley Kulm, D.C.
