SAVE THE DATE

Come ready to be inspired. The NCMPR District 7 Conference is heading to Whitefish, Montana, where breathtaking mountain scenery sets the perfect stage for our theme: "Big Ideas in Big Sky." We'll be gathering at The Lodge at Whitefish Lake, a full-service resort nestled between majestic mountains and the pristine waters of Whitefish Lake. Inspired by the grand lodges of the past, the venue offers lakefront dining at the Boat Club Restaurant, a full-service spa and stunning views at every turn.

When the sessions wrap up, Whitefish delivers. Explore the charming downtown filled with local shops, galleries and a vibrant restaurant scene. Sample huckleberry delicacies, bison burgers and locally crafted brews, or visit Glacier National Park just 30 minutes away. Join your fellow community college marketing and PR professionals for a gathering of creativity, collaboration and fresh thinking. Stay tuned for registration details.
