SNA’s Annual National Conference (ANC) in Dallas, July 11-14, 2010, is the biggest event in school nutrition and attending will allow you and your school nutrition team to bring back big ideas to your district as you work to provide healthy meal options for students on a very tight budget.

Here are just a few reasons why you and your staff will find big value in attending ANC:

• Big ideas from more than 80 education sessions. This year’s sessions will address everything from cost saving, financial management, reauthorization, food allergies, marketing, operations, nutrition and so much more. You can create a schedule based on your unique professional needs and interests. With so many education sessions and pre-conference sessions, school nutrition staff can work toward certification or even get certified at ANC!
• The big value from exposure to a full array of food and equipment vendors, all under one roof. The ANC Exhibit Hall allows you to quickly compare new products and resolve issues with vendors. With more than 700 exhibits, you always find new and exciting product ideas to take back to your district.
• The big opportunity to meet professionals who represent districts from all corners of the country. At ANC, you can work through operational problems and issues simply by talking and learning from each other.

Still need a reason to make your way with your team to Dallas this summer? When you register additional staff from the same school district in the same member category you save $30. Saving you more, while adding big value for your district!
