2022 Annual Fall Conference
By Karen Gillikin, VANA Education & Programs Committee Chair
VANA is headed back to Northern Virginia this year for the annual Fall Conference. The 2022 and 2023 Fall Meetings will be held at the Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner 1700 Tysons Blvd, McLean, VA. This luxury hotel is connected to exclusive shopping at Tysons Galleria and a short distance to Washington DC’s landmarks. We are also hosting a very exciting line up of excellent speakers for the main conference including AANA’s President Elect, Dru Riddle; AANA’s Vice President Elect, Jan Setnor; founder of the Leadership Excel Achievement Program, Sonya Moore; Amy Wielar, CRNA, UVA and VCU Health, and an expert panel to address Virginia’s workforce concerns. See the full program agenda here. This year’s PAC Event will be an evening guaranteed to entertain. “Puttin’ on the Ritz” is scheduled Saturday evening at 7pm in the hotel so no driving required. Grab your favorite 1920’s costume (optional) and join us for good company, jazz music, hors d’oeurves, and cocktails. All proceeds benefit VANA’s PAC. Register Now.
In Fall 2023, we are planning to host a Tri-State Meeting with Washington DC and Maryland, so stay tuned for more information to follow.
Also, save the date of February 4, 2023 for the VANA Winter Workshop in Richmond, VA.
