(Sept. 1, 2023) – It is hard to believe we have just entered September and the 2023 KHA Annual Convention and Trade Show is next week. We look forward to seeing all of you! This year's theme, Igniting Joy, promises to educate, enlighten and entertain you with award-winning speakers, networking opportunities and nearly 200 professional exhibitors displaying state-of-the-art products and services.
We will start the convention experience by bringing together friends and health care colleagues at the Registration and Welcome Reception, from 8:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 6. This pre-event gathering, sponsored by our friends at KAMMCO, offers a casual evening of conversation and cocktails. While there, I encourage you to take a moment to stop by the registration desk to pick up your convention materials and beat the Thursday rush. As a reminder, there will not be exhibitor registration during the Welcome Reception.
If you need a new corporate photo taken, I encourage you to stop by the photo booth, from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 7, and have your professional corporate photo taken, complimentary of KHA, as a thank you for attending the convention. In addition, plan to join us for the Wild, Wild West Party on Thursday night, which combines our hospitality rooms with our traditional KHA party. Feel free to wear your western attire as we are giving out a prize for the best outfit.
Lastly, be sure to download the 2023 KHA Convention and Trade Show App. The app provides information about sessions, speakers, exhibitors, a customizable calendar, a list of attendees, a venue map and an interactive trade show floor plan. The app is available for Android, iPhone and iPad and can be downloaded in the App Store and Google Play. Search for "2023 KHA Annual Convention."
If you have any questions leading up to next week's event, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at the KHA office. Enjoy your Labor Day Weekend, and we look forward to seeing you next week!
