Here's what attendees had to say:

  • I have been invited by numerous members to join NAHAD but I did not think it would be worth the time and the money. I was wrong!!! It was well worth the time and money and I plan to attend next year and bring our general manager with me.
  • Everything exceeded my expatiations. Great networking.
  • The "high point" of my business year!
  • NAHAD is an excellent source of information.
  • A great balance of entertainment and networking, allowing for an enjoyable atmosphere of professionalism and fun!
  • NAHAD has consistently provided our company with avenues for networking and improving business procedures year after year. The professionals who dedicate their time and expertise to better our industry have influenced the way we do business.
  • Great place to bond, build partnerships and long lasting friendships.
