LPA Annual Meeting
Be sure to mark your calendars for the 2018 Centennial LPA Annual Meeting at the Boca Raton Beach Club and Resort on November 3-6 and join the LPA in celebrating 100 years of supporting the scientific industry! Registration will be available soon.
Book your room at the beautiful Boca Resort and Beach Club. These are two separate properties – both Waldorf Astoria properties. The actual meeting and sleeping rooms will be at the Boca Beach Club, which is right on the beach.
The LPA provides professional development and keynote speakers who present on topics such as the economy, emerging trends and technology, as well as inspiring stories of commitment and leadership. Members also have the opportunity to participate in the optional outings, which are great ways to get to know your colleagues in a relaxed setting, as well as learn more about the area the meeting is held. Guests and spouses are always welcome to attend.
This year's annual golf tournament will be held on-site at the resort golf course. The optional outing on Sunday will be a Taste of Mizner Park, which will be a walking historic and foodie tour of downtown Boca Raton. At the conclusion of this meeting, relax and get some sun on an optional yacht cruise down the intracoastal waterway! This year's meeting will be one you won't want to miss!
