2017 Summer CME Weekend Getaway
IAFP Summer CME Weekend Getaway in Lake Okoboji is BACK for 2017!
 
Join us June 15-17, 2017 at Bridges Bay Resort in Okoboji for the 2017 Summer Meeting

The Summer CME Weekend Getaway was a long standing tradition at the IAFP and after more than a decade away we were thrilled to be bring the beloved Okoboji meeting back in 2016 to the excitement of our members. After the success of last year's meeting, we thought why not do it again? So we are heading back to Okoboji in 2017 for all the fun, sun, education, and socialization this event is known for! This meeting is truly a family affair where there will be plenty of time for you to relax, explore and enjoy all the area has to offer. We will offer three, half-day CME sessions during this weekend beginning at 12:30 on Thursday and from 8:00 to 1:00 on Friday and Saturday. We are excited to return to Bridges Bay Resort for the 2017 meeting!
