Today we’re starting off with professional development tracks followed by the Food for Thought Luncheon with a keynote address from First Sergeant Matt Eversmann (Ret.), Black Hawk Down Battle of Mogadishu hero and two-time New York Times best-selling author and documentarian.

End your conference with a laugh! Tonight is the Connect & Celebrate Dinner that starts with music from Michael Andrew and the Swingerhead Band, followed by stand-up comedian Tom Papa, a Netflix star with more than 20 years of experience. He’s been one of the top comedic voices in film, TV, radio, podcasts and the live stage. Recognitions will be given during the dinner, including the Presidential Awards and the swearing-in of the APCO Executive Committee & Board of Directors. Tickets are available for purchase at registration.
