Celebrate the NNP! Wednesday Night Party

Celebrate 50 years of the Nurse Practitioner Role. In 1965 the

first Nurse Practitioner program was formed at the University of

Colorado. The Wednesday night celebration will be beachside

music from the Beatles, Elvis, Bob Dylan and Woodstock. The

fashion was the beginning of the floral prints, Capri pants, mini

shirts, boots and the start of the hippie’s movement. So open

your mind for something new or look in your closet for

some-thing old and get dressed up for a beach party filled with music,

food, dance and entertainment. You can buy your ticket(s)

when you register on-line, mail or at the conference. Hope to

see you there to enjoy a blast from the past.
