SSTI's annual conference, December 10-12, is set within the beautiful property of the Gila River Indian Community at the Sheraton Grand at Wild Horse Pass. The conference component of your trip is designed with a focus on the future, allowing you and your team to interact with like-minded people from across the country, taking the time to prepare for 2025 and all it might entail--together. The desert setting also provides an escape from your day-to-day grind to take in inspiration, relax, refresh and re-energize. 

Affordably priced, easily accessible from most airports in the country, and heavily discounted beautiful resort accommodations--all with the intention of allowing your organization to bring multiple people to make this your best way to end a very long year and begin the strategic planning necessary to take on the next one revived. This conference will be a TBED event like no other. Join us.
