Delegate Article – Howard Anderson
I had the good fortune to serve as one of the North Carolina Delegates present at the 2009 House of Delegates (HOD) at the AMTA National Convention.

The number of delegates for each chapter is determined by the number of members in the chapter. North Carolina is considered an extra large chapter and therefore has five delegate slots.
