2021 KEA Summer Leadership Summit

It is about time we get back to some normalcies don’t you think? Then let’s get together for an in person gathering!

KEA Summer Leadership Summits are being held across the commonwealth this summer, bringing local and district presidents together for a day filled with camaraderie, learning, networking, and fun!

KEA Staff has put together a set of valuable tools for all local presidents and their local association. From membership to finance and everything in between, leaders will obtain beneficial information to lead their local associations to a more powerful position within their district.

We ask that ALL local presidents attend this important event in the region they serve. If for some reason, the local president can not attend, the local president will send an officer within their local executive committee (V.P., Treasurer, Secretary) to attend in their place. Space is limited and social distancing will be followed. If for some reason you can not attend the summit for your district and wish to attend in another district, please know members in the district you wish to attend will have first option to attend. If space is available after all presidents in that district are registered, you may attend in that area. 

Dates of Summits and Districts in which should attend are as follows:
