 Meetings
The GCA meets regularly three times a year. The first meeting of the year is
an open Board of Directors’ planning session, held in the winter and open
to all GCA members. At this meeting, the focus is directed toward upcoming plans
for the year as well as legislative interests and postal concerns impacting the
greeting card industry.
