Awards Banquet Information (May 20, 2024 7:00 pm-11:00 pm) At TPHA, we truly value our members and the service they provide to our organization. We have a long history of recognizing outstanding leadership and service within our membership, beginning with the very first TPHA Annual Meeting back in 1923, where the grand prize winner assumed the Presidency of the organization! We don't do THAT anymore, but every year, at our awards ceremony, we honor members who have provided outstanding service not only specifically to this organization, but to the practice of public health in general. This year is particularly special because we are celebrating our 100th birthday as an organization, and our awardees will go down in history as having received awards during this monumental year. Also, this year is unique because, instead of having an awards luncheon on the last day of our conference, we will be having an evening gala, complete with red carpet, full buffet, awards, photobooth, music and dancing! This special event is included with your full registration. So, pack your best after-five attire and join us for this special evening!
