The $125.00 annual SGA dues will be collected at the registration table. The meeting will be called to order promptly at 10:00 a.m. and will conclude by noon.

SGA Can-a-thon Rules and Return Sheet: Once again the AISA SGA will be sponsoring a State-Wide Can-a-thon this year. I hope that your SGA will join other SGAs from across the state that will be participating in this service project to help the needy. Cans may be collected until January 20, 2012. The Return Sheet is due in the AISA office no later than February 1, 2012.
