Time is flying by, and we can hardly believe our Triennial Gala & Awards Ceremony: Celebrating 90 Years of WANP is less than 3 weeks away! As is always the case with planning major events like this, we need to have our attendee numbers as finalized as possible by this coming weekend. 😬 If you've been thinking about getting your tickets but haven't done it quite yet, we urge you to register today!

This will be an evening to remember, where we will recognize, celebrate, and honor all those who have made this organization - and this profession - what it is today. Don your formal wear (our 90-year theme colors are emerald, diamond, and granite) and enjoy a free coat check, numerous photo opportunities, and historical displays to peruse while you enjoy heavy appetizers and free cocktails (or mocktails if you prefer) in a gorgeous art gallery. Then move with us into a banquet style dinner during the evening's scheduled program, consisting of a warm welcome, a presentation on the 9 decades of this organization and its major players, a robust awards ceremony, a call to action.... and then a call to dessert and dancing! The evening will close out with time to enjoy the entire venue (quiet and loud spaces, table and lounge seating - you'll have options!), get silly in the photo booth, and dance the night away.

We do this only once every 3 years - and our 90th birthday seems like a particularly grand thing to celebrate - so clear your schedule for November 8, grab your tickets today, and come be a part of it! https://www.wanp.org/gala-2025/

Have you saved the date for our next CME conference? Get it on your calendars now! PLUS - do you have a topic you'd like to present? Our call for proposals is OPEN, and we want to hear from you! Visit https://www.wanp.org/education/2026conference/ to learn more and submit your proposal today.

As naturopathic physicians ourselves, we know exactly what our doctors want from their continuing medical education: tips and tricks based on real clinical experience, detailed treatment plans that actually work, and the latest and greatest updates in the field of medicine. With this in mind, we are thrilled for our 2026 Annual Conference, The Smart Physician: Pearls, Protocols, & Evolving Wisdom.

We can't wait to see what kinds of proposals this theme will elicit from our incredible community, and we can't WAIT to welcome you all to our next completely virtual CME event in Spring 2026.
