POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE – Doing Business with the Port of Virginia 2020 – Norfolk

As the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) issue continues to take hold in areas across the nation, we have decided that the preventative measure of postponing the SWaM event scheduled for Friday, March 20 at the Grand Rotunda, Nauticus in Norfolk.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, limiting the assembly of large groups is one way to help prevent the spread of the virus and this is one way we can do our part. We are, however, committed to hosting this important event. To that effort, we are working to reschedule and will let you know as soon as we have determined a new date at a time when life is more normal.  We will be carrying-over all registrations to date.

We value our relationship with you and look forward to meeting again soon. We do appreciate your patience and understanding. It is our most sincere hope that you, your families, friends and colleagues are healthy.

Best,

Al Collado
