TUESDAY ANNUAL BANQUET and AWARDS GALA 

This year, we are celebrating TENA’s 40th Anniversary of serving Tennessee’s 911 partners, and we want to make this event special for those attending.  The Conference dress code has always been “business casual,” which stays the same this year.  However, we are also offering the opportunity for semi-formal attire for the Gala: ladies in long or short dresses or skirts, and men in suits and ties.  If your agency provides Class A uniforms, you are more than welcome to wear them.  You do not need to go out and buy anything fancy, unless you want to.
