AERC.org

March 7 & 8, 2025 • Nugget Casino Resort • Sparks, Nevada

Back to the Reno area for a member-favorite location — the Nugget is truly an all-in-one resort with multiple restaurants, a fitness center and pool and arcade. Best of all: free parking and a free airport shuttle!

But of course the convention happenings will be the highlight. We’re thrilled to have a terrific lineup of speakers, including Harold Schott, DVM, PhD, DACVIM, of the Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine, presenting on both days.

And, of course, the must-haves that make convention so worthwhile (and fun): the regional awards ceremony on Friday evening, followed by the Friday night dance, and the convention culminates with the don’t miss national awards banquet on Saturday. And how can we forget to mention the fabulous trade show, with shopping galore geared just for you. You can also buy (and sell) at the tack swap, and try your luck at the AERC raffle!

We hope you will join in the fun on March 7 & 8, 2025, at the Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada.
