Message from the Chapters Team
Dear Chapter Officers,
Sending NKBA | KBIS love in February! We are looking forward to welcoming you back to Las Vegas, with NKBA Chapter Officer “Leader 2 Leader” on Monday, February 24.
Our daylong L2L and Chapter Officer training will be held once again at Resorts World Hotel, Orchid Ballroom. Doors open at 7:30 AM for breakfast, and the program will begin promptly at 8:30 AM. After lunch, we will break into Chapter Officer roles for our “best bets” and a deeper dive into our roles. L2L concludes with Chapter Star Awards, and then we’ll continue celebrating with you at NKBA | KBIS Opening Night/Design Industry Awards at the Wynn Hotel at 6:00 PM. A full itinerary will be emailed to you in just a couple of weeks.
There’s so much to share with you next month when we are all together for KBIS, but some hot off the press items just can’t wait…Our Research team has been in high gear, releasing two big reports this week, and recently launching NKBA’s Kitchen & Bath Pro Hub. Please sign up for this new platform, share your insights and gain knowledge from other leading pros in our industry. Check out all the latest in our Research section below.
As you all know, we’re in full KBIS mode here at NKBA Chapters & Learning, but as a reminder, all Chapter forms and applications are due March 31, which include the mandatory Compliance Form and Year-End Financial Report, plus optional Initiative Grant Application.
Thank you for all the great work that you do! We can’t wait to see you soon in Vegas!
Best,
Kelly
