It's never too early to start planning to attend the 35th Annual AAKP Convention! This year, the Convention takes place in Washington, D.C., from Aug. 28 - 31, and includes educational sessions featuring the the most up-to-date information about kidney nutrition and diet. The Annual Convention is also a great place to interact with fellow kidney patients and healthcare professionals.
 
The official Convention hotel is the spectacular Grand Hyatt Washington. Hotel reservations can be made by calling the Grand Hyatt Washington toll free at (800) 233-1234. To receive the preferred rate of $125 per night (single or double occupancy), identify yourself as an AAKP Convention attendee. Please make your reservations as early as possible as the Convention hotel has sold out in past years.
 
To keep updated on AAKP Convention information, visit the AAKP Web site, www.aakp.org, or call AAKP at (800) 749-AAKP.
