VENUE INFORMATION

This year's meeting will be held in the Shewmaker Center of the Northwest Arkansas Community College (NWACC) campus in Bentonville, Arkansas. NWACC is a comprehensive, public two-year college that is one of the largest and fastest growing two-year colleges in Arkansas.

Leadership chose to hold the meeting in Bentonville because (a) we haven't held a meeting there in quite some time and (b) it's not far from cities in Oklahoma, North Texas and parts of Missouri and Kansas. 

Bentonville's revitalized downtown square, historical areas, world-class museums, and soft and hard cycling trails that connect you across Northwest Arkansas make it a great place to visit. It is perhaps most famously known as the location of Walmart's corporate headquarters and where Sam Walton first opened his Five and Dime Store. In fact, our educational sessions will take place in the Walmart Auditorium within the Shewmaker Center. Some recommended places to visit in Bentonville:
