Industry Friends,

We want to extend an invitation to you and your sales representatives to attend the 51st Annual School Nutrition Association of South Dakota Conference, to be held June 24-26th at the Doubletree Downtown Rapid City Convention Center in Rapid City, SD. With this registration you will be given the opportunity to become an SNASD Industry Member. We offer this membership only 1 time a year. We have a membership of four hundred throughout the State. In past years we have had more than 250 in attendance at the Conference for the workshop, general sessions and vendor booths. This is an excellent time to show your products to School Nutrition Employees from around the State.

The general sessions of conference will begin on June 24th. The Vendor exhibits area will open June 26th at 11:45 AM and remain open until 1:45 PM. The show will be open to all attendees and SNASD board members will be available to direct traffic. Buyers will be noted as such on their name badge.

Industry Membership: We offer Industry Partner Memberships! For detailed info on this please visit our website: https://www.snasd.org/industry-membership.
