Did you know our Annual Meetings rotate every year through our four regions? This allows for more accessible travel for members who might not otherwise have the option to fly across the country. This also supports the regional associations by allowing attendees to visit their beautiful cities. The upcoming Annual Meeting takes us to the western region where we will spend the week in Reno, Nevada. In our 120-year history, we have never held an annual or interim meeting in Reno, although we were close in 2003 in Sparks! The 110th Annual Meeting will be held at the Silver Legacy Resort Casino, part of The Row Reno, a city within a city. There are 25 restaurants, 23 bars and lounges, and 11 nightspots within The Row, which occupies most of downtown Reno. Guests will have access to three casinos, Eldorado, Circus Circus, and Silver Legacy, all while walking indoors under one roof. The Silver Legacy and The Row are in the Arch District. The Arch District is renowned for its iconic landmark, the Reno Arch, which proudly boasts the city’s nickname, “The Biggest Little City in the World”. The Reno Arch is featured in films like Kingpin, Sister Act, Cobbs, The Wizard, and Waking Up in Reno. Steps away from the Arch District is the Reno Riverwalk District. Riverside Walkway offers scenic views of the Truckee River, landscaped paths, art sculptures, and adjacent parkland. 14
