As we begin 2027, it is once again a tremendous honor to serve you as President of the North Carolina Public Risk Management Association (NCPRIMA). I am excited about the opportunities ahead and grateful for the trust you have placed in me to lead this outstanding organization. We have an incredible team of leaders who are committed to taking this association to the next level, and I am thankful for the dedication of our Board of Directors and Vice President Precious Seabrooks. Their hard work behind the scenes continues to make NCPRIMA stronger and more valuable for our members.

Please join us for our first Quarterly Meeting of 2027:

January 29, 2027
NCPRIMA Quarterly Meeting
Kernersville Fire Station 42 – Community Room
1180 NC Highway 66 South
Kernersville, NC 27281

This meeting will provide an excellent opportunity to connect with colleagues, discuss emerging risks and industry trends, and continue building the professional relationships that make our association so valuable. As always, breakfast and lunch will be provided for registered attendees.

Looking ahead, we are excited to announce that our annual TopGolf fundraising event is scheduled for April 23, 2027, in Greensboro, North Carolina. More details will be released soon, as this event will be paired with one of our quarterly meetings. We anticipate another great opportunity for networking, fellowship, and raising funds to support NCPRIMA programs and initiatives.

We are also excited about our 2027 Annual Conference, which will be held September 12-15, 2027, at the Lumina Resort in Wrightsville Beach. Once again, attendees can expect outstanding educational sessions, professional development opportunities, and valuable networking with public entity risk managers, safety professionals, HR practitioners, school personnel, and others involved in risk management across North Carolina.

This year's conference theme will be a Tropical Luau, bringing a fun and engaging atmosphere to complement the high-quality educational experience our members have come to expect. Be sure to mark your calendars now and plan to join us for what promises to be another exceptional conference.

The NCPRIMA Board continues working hard to develop meaningful programs and educational opportunities throughout the year. If there are topics or speakers you would like us to consider for future meetings, we encourage you to share your ideas with us. Your input helps us ensure that our programs remain relevant and beneficial to our membership.

Thank you for your continued support of NCPRIMA and for the important work you do every day to advance risk management throughout our public entities. Great things are coming in 2027, and I encourage you to stay tuned.

I look forward to seeing you on January 29th in Kernersville and throughout the year at our events.

Sincerely,

Chris Elliott
President
North Carolina Public Risk Management Association (NCPRIMA)
