Join MTA this spring as we honor Michigan’s Unique & United townships

MTA’s 2025 Annual Educational Conference & Expo will honor the Unique & United spirit of Michigan’s 1,240 townships. Embracing uniqueness allows township to celebrate and leverage their distinct characteristics, community culture and strengths—leading them toward a strong sense of local identity. Unity promotes collaboration and share resources, and provides and empowered approach to tackling common challenges. Blending unique attributes with a unified approach helps townships drive sustainable progress, enhance regional resilience, and build vibrant, cohesive communities. 

Whether you are a newly elected official or have served your community for years, this annual event is the perfect place to learn, connect and share with your fellow local leaders. As we begin the new township term of office, let MTA’s Conference & Expo inspire you to service Unique & United on behalf of your township—and all townships. Join us March 31-April 3 at the Amway Grand Plaza and DeVos Place in Grand Rapids. 

We look forward to seeing you there!
