"Message from the Editor"

     We are only six weeks out from the Annual Training Conference and the Narcotic Investigation Networking event “Awards Luncheon”.

    There are two weeks (May 16th) until the Conference registration fee for NJNEOA Members is raised to $20.00, and for Non-members to $65.00. So, if you are planning on attending and haven’t registered yet, do so before the 16th.

    This month’s cover has the Speakers and the topics that they will be covering during this year’s conference. Each speaker has been independently featured in each previous issue of the magazine since January.

   As for the Awards Luncheon, currently the cost to attend is $60.00. The cost as of May 16th will be $75.00. So, if you haven’t registered for the Luncheon yet, make sure you do so prior to the increase taking effect.

   Regarding the Annual Awards Luncheon, we have revised the Awards Luncheon Program so that there will be more time for networking amongst your peers. We have also changed the start time to 12:00pm, so that food will be served @1:00pm and the program should end prior to 2:30pm. This will give everyone plenty of time to travel home prior to rush hour.

   Lastly, I would like to thank all the agencies that support the NJNEOA throughout the year, either in the way of memberships, attending training seminars, the conference or the Awards Program. It is because of your support that we are able to offer free to minimum cost training to the law enforcement community.

   Thank you for your support of the NJNEOA.
