SNAAZ Annual State Conference
69th Annual SNAAZ ASC
Phoenix Convention Center
November 08, 2025
2025 SNAAZ ASC - “Back to the Future: Hoverboards and Hot Lunches"
Welcome, wonderland enthusiasts, to our extraordinary 68th Annual State Conference. This years event is inspired by the whimsical world of Alice in Wonderland! Just like Alice, we are all here to embark on a journey of curiosity, exploration and wonder. Let us embrace the magic of this theme and let our imaginations run wild as we delve into education topics that may seem peculiar or impossible at first glance.
In the spirit of this whimsical tale, I encourage you all to approach our conference with an open mind, ready to challenge conventional thinking and venture into unchartered territories of knowledge. Just as Alice encountered a variety of intriguing characters and situations in her adventures, I am confident that each of you will find inspiration and enlightenment in the general session, education breakouts, vendor exhibition show, and many wonderful discussions with colleagues.
So, without further ado, let us step through the looking glass together and immerse ourselves in the enchanting realm of ideas and discoveries that lie ahead. May this conference be a truly transformative experience for all, where we dare to dream big, think boldly, and emerge enlightened, just like our beloved Alice.
Whether you are a director, supervisor, cafeteria manager, frontline staff, or central office/warehouse staff there is something for each of you!
