​Each fall, CAI's Large-Scale Managers Committee hosts an annual workshop exclusively for community managers specializing in large-scale communities.  In 2024, we will be in Montgomery County, MD - September 11 - 14.

What is a Large-Scale Community?
A large-scale community is defined as a community providing municipal type services with a minimum of 1,000 units or minimum of 1,000 acres and a minimum of $2 million operating budget.

What is the Workshop?
The workshop is an immersive experience where participants have the opportunity to tour two to three large-scale communities - from pools to parking lots - and everything in between. Additionally, participants will also have access to exclusive networking events and education sessions specifically designed for the large-scale community manager. 
​

Note: The workshop will be a walking/touring workshop. Be sure to bring your walking shoes and umbrellas. If anyone requires special accommodations​​, please reach out to Carly Reid at [email protected].

Registration will open up in January 2024.​​​

For the first 60 days, registration is limited to onsite large-scale general managers, assistant general managers and those with a current LSM designation. If you have questions about your eligibility, please email Crystal Wallace at [email protected].
