NVAR Annual Convention & Trade Show: October 14

Laden with grocery contributions, NVAR members flocked to the annual Convention and Trade Show on October 14 at the Northern Virginia Community College Annandale Campus. From the time they arrived, until the last of the happy hour hors d'oeuvres were consumed, convention-goers connected, collaborated and collected trade show offerings. Here is a glimpse of our attendees – from convention start to close! View coverage of the Politics & Pancakes breakfast on page 33.
