Convention Dates and Location

I hope that everyone will put September 28th thru October 1st, 2012 on their calendar to attend the Southwest PPA Regional Convention.  It will be at a brand new location this year. All events on the 28th thru the 30th will be held in the Irving Convention Center in Irving, Texas. The programs on October 1st will be at the hotel. The upscale community there is known as Las Colinas and the facility is awesome. Our host hotel will be the Omni Mandalay Hotel at Las Colinas and we have gotten a great room rate of $129.00 a night. We have links posted on our website to the hotel and the convention center. We hope to see everyone there.
