Happy Spring and Blessings to our NTA family. What an exciting time of year! Since many an organization adjusted dates in anticipation for the WTC coming in August, I thought an email reminder was a good idea. This year’s show will be held May 2nd-4th in Columbia, Missouri. For all of the details of this great event, visit our Convention & Competition section! We plan on returning to July for our convention in 2025.
We asked the Holiday Inn Convention Center to add more rooms at $109 to our block which will close mid -April. Published prices have climbed to $169. Visit our Location & Lodging page for details and to reserve your room at discounted rates for easy bookings.

Please note that any guests must have a registration for the three days or a special Saturday pass, but they do not need to be a member to attend. The Saturday night banquet and awards celebration is $35.00. Please note your meal choice as the host hotel needs to preorder supplies.

2024 Ribbons & Awards
Our 2024 NTA ribbons have arrived and are we excited! Visit our Ribbons & Awards Gallery page to get a sneak peek! Images of the trophies will be added in about a week’s time, with medallions being updated in mid-April. Division championships are multiple ribbon categories, with the exception of LIVE Warrior/s Lone, Doubles, and Triples which are single ribbons: 6, 4, 3 places respectively. Each ribbon is certified by our NTA coin, a platinum tone eagle on a gold tone coin.
We sure would love to see you!
