Whether you're a seasoned operator or just starting out, the Expo will offer practical tools and connections that matter to your business and your career.

Introducing New CAPMA Awards: Honoring Excellence in Every Corner

In 2025, we’re excited to launch two new awards that reflect the talent and passion within our membership:

• Outstanding District Award – This honor will go to a district that demonstrates exceptional member engagement, community impact, and alignment with CAPMA’s mission.
• Rising Star Award – Designed to spotlight early-career professionals who show tremendous promise, leadership, and dedication to the field.

These awards are part of our broader goal to recognize the people and teams who are shaping the future of pest management in California.
