The annual MoNA Collaboration retreat was held at Michigan State University from August 15 - 16, 2022. Participants included Primary Investigators (PIs), graduate students, undergraduate students, and high school students that contributed to the MoNA research program over the last calendar year as shown in the picture below (not pictured: James Brown from Wabash College and Belen Monteagudo from Hope College). The two days were packed with discussions of research projects by collaborators, PAC1 approved experiment preparation, future research plans, and discussion of PAC2 proposal ideas. In addition to great physics discussions, the major events during the retreat included welcoming a new PI Adriana Banu (James Madison University) as a full member of the Collaboration, electing a new Executive Director Thomas Redpath (Virginia State University), and welcoming back PI Michael Thoennessen (Michigan State University).
