June 20-22, 2025
Great Wolf Lodge
Concord, NC
Bring the family and kick off your summer in Concord, home of the Charlotte Motor Speedway! This mini vacation has up to 15 hours of continuing education for you, and access for up to six family members to enjoy all the waterpark fun at Great Wolf Lodge.
If you don't have kids, don't fret. The GWL Conference Center is separated from the waterpark, so you don't have to go through that side of the facility if you do not wish to.
There's plenty to do in Cabarrus County to keep you busy outside of conference hours. Take a tour of the Charlotte Motor Speedway, visit nearby Gibson Mill for beer, ice cream and antiques, there's plenty of shopping at nearby Concord Mills or IKEA, or join NCVMA and District 9 at the Kannapolis Cannonballers on Saturday, June 21, for a baseball game and dinner!
