A busy agenda full of professional development workshops, social activities and tours around the island is awaiting the attendees of the National Association of Postmasters of the United States (NAPUS) convention, being held this week.
The group, expected to reach the 1,700 participants, is meeting at the Pedro Rosselló Convention Center (Puerto Rico Convention Center) in San Juan, where they attend workshops and seminars on mailing and shipping processes, compliance, legislation, finance – and even have time to take salsa lessons.
“We are pleased to support the NAPUS in such an important annual meeting, where they are discussing critical issues for the organization’s membership. Besides, this type of event allows us to continue showing our abilities as a world-class group and conventions destination,” said Federico Sánchez, president of the Board of Directors of the Puerto Rico Convention Bureau (PRCB).
Convention delegates are staying at the Caribe Hilton Hotel and the Sheraton Puerto Rico Hotel & Casino. The convention started yesterday and activities continue until September 19, producing approximately 4,115 room nights with an estimated impact of 2.2 million for Puerto Rico’s economy.
NAPUS represents over 42,000 postmasters in the United States. The organization’s mission is to promote and encourage public policy to protect their members as well as to provide supplemental benefits such as insurance (life, property and disability), discounts, retirement programs and road assistance, both to active and retired postmasters.
