Yes! This year there will be an Opening Party on the USS Midway docked a short way from the Manchester Grand Hyatt on Saturday evening
AANA will welcome attendees to San Diego with a celebration so big, only an aircraft carrier could hold it!
Join us at Party with a Purpose, where we'll kick off Annual Congress with music, food, drinks ... and a few surprises.
Our event will benefit Zero8Hundred, a nonprofit organization in San Diego that helps thousands of service members and their families as they transition from military to civilian life. Bring one or more requested items from the list below, and an AANA staff member will exchange them for up to two drink tickets to use at the reception:
- THE BASICS (full or travel sizes are accepted)
