As many of you know, NACE is fully remote, with staff spread across the country—from New Hampshire to Hawaii and everywhere in between. Our annual staff retreat is a big deal for us, providing a rare opportunity to come together in person. This year, we gathered in Bethlehem, PA to reflect on our biggest wins, recognize outstanding team members, and kick off planning for NACE's 70th anniversary in 2026. It's incredible how time flies! I have to say, this is the best staff ever - I couldn't be prouder of this team. We learned a lot from each other and had a great time together too. Working alongside such amazing individuals is truly a privilege. A huge thank you to everyone who traveled near and far to join us. Looking forward to the next reunion in Philadelphia for #NACE25!
