We are excited to announce that the National Association of Parks Foundations (NASPF) will be hosting our annual conference from October 21-24, 2024, at the beautiful Rocky Gap Lodge and Casino in Maryland. This year's theme, "Building Connections," is all about forging new partnerships, enhancing accessibility, and expanding our fundraising capabilities.

We'll kick off with a welcome reception on the evening of October 21, followed by two full days of sessions on October 22 and 23. The conference will conclude with a half-day of sessions on October 24, allowing for departures in the afternoon.

This year’s lineup will feature expert speakers across various sectors, focused on fundraising, accessibility, and building effective partnerships. We look forward to welcoming you to Maryland this fall for a meaningful and productive gathering.
