We cordially invite you to join us for the 2026 California Association of Mutual Water Companies (CalMutuals) and CalMutuals’ Joint Powers Risk and Insurance Management Authority (CalMutuals JPRIMA) Annual Meeting. The meeting will be held Mon., Nov. 2 and Tues., Nov. 3 at the Tommy Bahama Miramonte Resort & Spa in Indian Wells, CA.
This year's meeting will include annual reports on the "State of the Association" and the "State of the Authority." The afternoon will feature sessions on risk management fundamentals–including a preview of the CIPRO Certification Program–and guidance on developing the wildfire-specific incident response plans required by SB 1153. Attendees will also receive valuation guidance to support informed decision-making for their systems.
On the second day, members will have the chance to connect directly with fellow small systems, followed by workshops on fire-hardening best practices and resources and complying with back-up power requirements. Attendees can qualify for CEUs for each of the sessions.
You can book your room at the group rate by either calling the hotel at 855-820-0744 or using the booking link. The last day to book at the group rate is Oct. 1, 2026.
Registration is FREE for CalMutuals, CalMutuals JPRIMA and Community Water Systems Alliance members, as well as for our insurance broker partners. Travel grants for airfare or mileage, lodging and meals are available for mutual water companies that provide water to 500 or fewer connections and/or serve small and disadvantaged communities. Please contact Ceili Tuttle (ceili@calmutuals.org) if you are interested.
Join us for one or both days–we hope to see you there!
