The 2024 TMAA Convention was held in Chattanooga on April 26-27. The Chattanooga Medical Alliance hosted the event at The Westin on Chattanooga’s Southside, a lively district with restaurants and hotels. Thank you to CMA members for organizing and hosting this year’s convention.
The meeting opened with a Welcome Reception and Dinner at The Walden Club on the top floor of the Republic Building. Many thanks to Dr. R. Phillip Burns, husband of Gayanne Burns, TMAA President 1987-1988, for sponsoring our organization at the private dining club. Guests enjoyed a festive occasion with panoramic views of Chattanooga as we dined and shared good company.
The business meeting opened at 9:30 am after the well-attended Golden Gavel Breakfast. Michael St. Charles, a local attorney and prolific non-profit volunteer, spoke to attendees about volunteerism. His insights into those who are volunteers and how to recruit volunteers was enlightening. We were honored to have Racheal Kunesh, AMAA President 2023-2024 as our special guest for this event. She spoke about the AMAA and her presidency over the past year. She also conducted the installation of our 2024-2025 officers. Milli Yium from Chattanooga graciously passed her TMAA President’s pin to incoming president Kelly Maxwell during the ceremony.
