2011 PANA Fall Symposium

Happy Attendees!

Omni Bedford Springs Resort
Oct 21- 23, 2011

This Falls PANA Symposium at the Omni Bedford Springs Resort proved to be the best attended in years. 200 CRNAs and SRNAs attended this reinvigorated Fall event. A wonderful list of speakers as well as first class accomodations provided for a spectacular weekend. The PANA PAC sponsored a wine tasting event which was, despite the obvious, very educational too! Check out the pictures submitted by CRNA's for this event which will help the PANA PAC continue its efforts. Thanks to all who attended! The PANA also thanks the fog on Sunday morning for turning golfers back to the conference. ;-) Find the final agenda for this event below, as well as pictures, as we receive them. Stop back to see more!
