2021 Annual Convention - Knoxville, Tennessee

The 2021 in-person Knoxville Convention is officially postponed. The Executive Council met and made the difficult call to officially postpone the in-person Knoxville Convention to a future date. They did not take this action lightly given the inconvenience to those planning to attend in-person and the costs involved in this decision. Read the Convention postponement FAQs.

What's next? We will be working over the next several weeks to provide additional information with all of you, here's what we know:

• The Virtual Recruiting Fair will still be happening on Monday-Tuesday, October 18-19.
