About this Event
Welcome to the 2025 Big Sky & Mountain States Chapter Spring Meeting!
Join us at Hotel Renegade in Boise, a stunning new boutique hotel you won’t want to miss. Space is limited, so RSVP as soon as possible to secure your spot. We have an incredible lineup planned, including special guest speakers, multiple CEU sessions, and interactive showcase sessions throughout the afternoon.
Big news! Our Platinum Sponsor is covering ALL ticket fees for "early bird" NKBA chapter members! That’s right—if you’re a member, your entry is completely free if you RSVP by Mar 6th. Stay tuned for the big reveal!
Accommodations:
We have block rates at the Renegade, please book your room here: .
Cutoff for block rates is Mar 6. If our block of rooms sells out, email [email protected]. The hotel will only allow us to block a certain amount until they sell out. Once they sell out, they will let us add more, but only if they have more rooms to add, so book your rooms sooner than later.
