2026 Mid Winter Conference
Under the Desert Sky
Set Under the Desert Sky, this year’s gathering was all about slowing down, soaking it in, and choosing your own kind of adventure. Some folks kicked back poolside with the sun on their shoulders, others tested their aim at archery and trap shooting, and a few saddled up for horseback rides through classic Sonoran Desert trails. And for those who preferred a slower pace? There was plenty of quiet conversation by the fire, where stories flowed as easy as the desert breeze.
From sunup to sundown, Rancho de los Caballeros delivered all‑inclusive luxury with a western wink—three hearty meals a day and more activities than a jackrabbit has hops. Golfers teed it up on a championship course, pickleball paddles got a workout, and hiking boots found their way onto scenic desert paths.
The memories didn’t stop there. We tipped our hats at the opening reception’s custom cowboy hat bar, then closed things out in true Arizona fashion with a rodeo, campfire cookout, and star‑filled skies that don’t quit.
Best of all, this conference proved you really can mix business with pleasure—and bring the family along for the ride. With perfect March weather, wide‑open spaces, and something for everyone, Wickenburg showed us how it’s done.
To our sponsors: much obliged. Your support helped turn a conference into an experience we’ll be talking about long after the dust settles.
One thing’s for sure—this wasn’t just a meeting. It was a desert state of mind. 🌵🤠
