Only a Few Rooms Left at the Waterfront Collection: Register for Midyear Now!




CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE AND REGISTER FOR THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY MIDYEAR

If you’re thinking about attending the MCAA’s 2025 Midyear Meeting on Mackinac Island, now is the time to act. Due to the demand, our original room block at the host hotel, The Grand, filled quickly. In response, we’ve secured a very limited secondary block at the nearby Waterfront Collection, but they won’t last long.

Don’t wait! Once this additional block is filled, we will no longer be able to guarantee accommodations on Mackinac Island. Guests who register after that point will need to arrange lodging through their preferred travel site.

When you register for Midyear, a hotel request link will be emailed to you immediately after checkout. The sooner you complete your registration, the better your chances of securing one of these final rooms.

You won’t want to miss this year’s event. 2025 marks the MCAA’s 75th Anniversary, and we’re celebrating in a big way. Highlights include our largest-ever MAC PEC Golf Outing, complete with lunch and dinner, plus engaging Contractor Round Table Discussions, strategic industry planning sessions, educational Speed Dating, and an unforgettable Anniversary Celebration with dinner and dancing.

As registration has only been open for a short time, we expect a significant number of last-minute signups. If you wait, you risk missing out on the convenience and experience of staying on the island.

Secure your spot today by registering for Midyear. Grab one of the final rooms at the Waterfront Collection, and get ready to be part of one of the most memorable events in MCAA history.
