While at FallFest, be sure to take advantage of all of the networking opportunities - especially the social event planned for Tuesday evening at Anakeesta.

And for the craft beer lovers out there, you can also add on a ticket for the beer tasting at Anakeesta's Bear-Varian Fall Festival. This will be a fun night that you won't want to miss! TAPA is pleased to again offer workshops for attendees to enhance their clinical skills.
TAPA is pleased to once again offer programming specifically geared toward PA students. The festivities will kick off at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 5 at a student mixer at the Gatlinburg Convention Center, followed by the Annual TAPA Challenge Bowl. The CME Committee hopes that by moving the Challenge Bowl to Sunday night, more students will be able to participate. And practicing PAs are welcome to attend and cheer on their alma maters!

On Monday, Oct. 6, the Student Track will offer lectures and hands-on procedures on suturing, ultrasound techniques, and joint injections. The schedule is being finalized, so check back here for updates.
