Discussion Opportunities
Twice a year, the Maryland Association of Counties (MACo) offers a symposium on a relevant topic. These one-day events give attendees the opportunity to learn about and discuss at length topics that require more depth than a panel at one of our larger conferences or events. Examples of these topics include:

• Phase II Watershed Implementation Plan
• Public-Private Partnerships
• Purchasing & Procurement

Symposia are planned to take place in the spring and fall of each year.
