The Army Nurse Corps Association has since its founding held conventions every two years on even-numbered years, except for 2020, which had to be postponed because of the Covid pandemic. Our biennial gatherings include an agenda and speaker platform designed for celebrating the past, capitalizing on the present and connecting for the future.
Our 2024 convention was a big success. We were thankfully only lightly affected by the Helene storm during the event, but while it was still a hurricane it did unfortunately prevent or delay some from attending. We had marvelous continuing education presentations, an enlightening State of the Corps update from BG Burk, lots and lots of networking, catching up with old friends and welcoming young officers in our midst, and much more.
And in spite of all the current focus on the 125th ANC anniversary event in February, we are well into the planning of our ANCA 2026 convention. It will be 22-25 October 2026 in Phoenix, Arizona, so save that date! For our Thursday 22 October tour option, the convention committee has selected a driving tour of some of the best scenery in Arizona along the Apache Trail, along with a steam paddleboat visit to Canyon Lake. We are in the process of lining up another round of interesting and informative continuing speakers. More details on program, hotel, etc., wil be coming here in the weeks ahead, and registration is expected to open in February.
