You Gotta Leave in Order to Learn...

NIHCA Networking Workshop

~ A 1/2 Day Roundtable Workshop ~

Wednesday, November 18, 2026

Shakopee Community Center, Shakopee, MN

12noon-4pm

NIHCA is coming to Shakopee Community Center in Shakopee, MN to host a half-day Networking Workshop on Wednesday, November 8th from 12noon – 4:00 PM, and we’d love for you to join us.

 

This will be a fun, interactive day focused on connecting with others in the fitness industry. We’ll kick things off with a tour of the center, then move to a conference room for small-group discussions with directors, front desk staff, maintenance teams, programming, and more.

 

Topics will include:

 

  • Membership & retention
  • Marketing & sales
  • Staffing
  • Programming
  • Maintenance issues/scheduling
  • And much more

 

Lunch will be included! We promise you’ll leave with a notebook full of ideas to bring back to your club.

 

This is a great opportunity to network in a friendly, non-competitive environment. We all face similar challenges—so let’s share ideas, learn from each other, and find new ways to grow and succeed in an ever-changing industry.

 

Cost: $55 per person (includes lunch) OR 2 attendees for $100!


Make the decision to leave the office for a 1/2 day in order to learn something new and different that you can bring back to your facility.
