Abercrombie won’t attend seminar for new governors
Gov.-elect Neil Abercrombie won’t attend a Colorado seminar for new governors because his mother-in-law is ill.
Spokesman Jim McCoy said Thursday that Abercrombie needs to give his mother-in-law his immediate attention.
His chief of staff, Amy Asselbaye, and his deputy chief of staff, Andrew Aoki, will travel to the conference instead.
The three-day biennial, bipartisan event features a series of workshops and business sessions led by veteran governors.
The experienced governors will discuss such issues as management of executive budgets, shaping a vision for their administrations, strategic scheduling, communications and emergency preparedness.
