Professional Growth Conference
We are so excited to announce the 2024 Professional Growth Conference (PGC). This year’s conference will be held at the beautiful Little America Hotel and Conference Center in Flagstaff, Arizona. The PGC planning committee has planned a spectacular event for every level of child nutrition. So, if you are a director, supervisor, manager, frontline team member, or central office/warehouse there will be some wonderful education classes and information geared specifically for you. Also, we will be presenting an education track in Spanish for those more comfortable learning in that language.
