The Tripepi Smith team will not only participate in the conference as attendees, but Ryder will moderate the “Telling Your Organization’s Story” session on Friday, February 10 from 10:45 AM – 12 PM. During this session, Ryder will be joined by Christine Brainerd, the City of Folsom Communications Director, Maurice Chaney, the City of Roseville Public Information Officer for Environmental Utilities and Govt. and Erin Morales, CAPIO President and Public Affairs Supervisor for Cucamonga Valley Water District. Together, the panel will cover how to incorporate strategic communications into a city’s general plan and feature successful case studies from other public agencies.
Team Tripepi Smith will also join the Cal-ICMA annual networking dinner on February 8 and attend the CCMF member appreciation dinner on February 9.
“Tripepi Smith is excited to return to this conference and reconnect with our friends in city manager offices across California,” said Ryder. “We are equally anticipating meeting all the newly appointed managers and beginning some great work in our towns and cities. Our work with city managers started in 2002 when we first began supporting the California City Management Foundation, and it continues to this day with over 100 cities we have served throughout the western United States.”
As an Elite level sponsor of the Cal Cities City Managers Conference and CalCities Corporate Partner, Tripepi Smith is proud to support the education and preparation of city managers and assistant managers to lead their cities well for the seventh consecutive year.
