Cancelation Policy:
NAGGL intends to host the 2026 Annual Conference as a “hybrid” event featuring two different but cohesive experiences for participants – one catering to an in-person audience live at The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs, and one connecting an expansive virtual audience tuning in live from around the country.
NAGGL understands during these times that circumstances of your travel plans and abilities to travel may change. Find our full cancelation policy at https://www.naggl.org/cancelation-policy/
