Its almost time for our annual state convention, which will be held at the Sheraton Albuquerque Uptown Hotel from October22-25, 2026. The Door Prize Committee would like to take this opportunity to remind you about donating door prizes for our State Convention.
Having door prizes helps make the convention even more fun and eventful, because we all enjoy hearing our names called for a door prize. </div>
