National Conference 2012 to be held in Reno!

Join us in Reno, Nevada and gather with fellow National Guard men and women from all 54 states, territories and the District of Columbia.

During the day, you’ll hear from guest speakers from the Pentagon and Congress during business sessions, learn about the state of the Army and Air Force in separate sessions, have an opportunity to attend a variety of professional development workshops, and shop for the latest products and services in the largest defense industry trade show that caters to the National Guard.

Spend your evenings with your comrades at various events, including the Governor’s Reception, hospitality night and the All States Dinner.

The NGAUS conference is an excellent place for networking with your peers and for keeping up to date on all that NGAUS is doing to serve its members and the National Guard as a whole.
