As we previously announced, the AGEG Board of Directors carefully considered all factors regarding COVID-19, including information
and guidance, consulted with our venues, and made the decision to postpone the Annual Clinic for 2021 until August.
Safeguarding the health of our attendees, sponsors, speakers, staff, and our communities is paramount.
AGEG continues to closely monitor the COVID-19 guidance and communicate with our venues; therefore, our dates are subject to change.
