WASHINGTON -Snow did indeed make itself known during CUNA’s GAC. While heavy snowfall plagued the Washington D.C. area and other East Coast cities during the week prior to CUNA’s GAC, it also showed up at the end of the conference.

Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) was forced to cancel his appearance in order to have a good chance to attend another event. “There are always a few people who leave a little early on the third day to catch flights and meet other travel arrangements,” said CUNA spokesman Pat Keefe. “This year the snow might have hastened some people’s travel plans.”
