Celebrate Our Profession - Friday Night

This year's Friday night Celebrating Our Profession Dinner will feature more chances to mingle, network and have fun!  We'll have live music so bring your significant other and enjoy a night out socializing and dancing!

 

Career Starter Dues Vote Saturday Morning 8:00 a.m.

Please join us at the business meeting for this very important membership vote Saturday morning, at 8:00 a.m. to pass the amendment to adopt APTA's Career Starter Dues Program.  This program extends the discount period in a step down manner for the first four years after graduation, making membership dues more affordable for new professionals. This requires a bylaws change and we need you to help us have enough votes for this motion to pass! 

 

Raise a Glass with Us on Saturday Night!

Come Toast Our Profession Saturday night at the Crowne Plaza's 22nd Floor Windows on the River, which offers unrivaled views of the Mississippi River, St. Paul's Cathedral and the St. Paul and Minneapolis skylines. We will celebrate the accomplishments of our profession, our membership and our outstanding students.  As always, your first wine, beer or soft drink courtesy of MNPTA.
