We hope you have returned safe, sound and stimulated from
the 2013 CMA National Conference; we certainly have! We were treated once again
to the genuine hospitality of the people of Whitehorse. Even Mother Nature gave
us a warm welcome! It was the perfect setting for learning and networking with
some of the best in the museum community. From singing keynote speakers and
inspiring award recipients, to throwing
atlatls
at mock mammoths and panning for gold — the week flew by!
You can relive some
of your favourite moments by viewing photos on the
CMA Flickr site (can you tell which ones were taken at midnight?), and videos of the
Award recipients on the
CMA YouTube channel. To see the entertaining “photo-booth” pictures taken during
the event at the MacBride Museum of Yukon History, click on this

and use the access code “museum”. Who knew museum professionals could strike a
pose like that? Our thanks to the MacBride Museum for sharing those images and
for hosting a wonderful evening.
As employer applications are received for the
2014 Young Canada Works (YCW) program, the CMA would like to thank last year’s peer
review committee for their hard work.
