NNAC Spring Summit & Social – Sunday May 31, 2026
We are thrilled to announce our first-ever NNAC Spring Summit & Social, taking place on Sunday, May 31, 2026, from 11:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the beautiful Honsberger Estate Winery in Jordan, Ontario.
A Historic & inspiring setting, Honsberger Estate Winery is a 7th-generation family farm dating back to 1811, featuring a charming 1895 homestead, an 1812 barn, and 50 acres of orchards, vineyards, and gardens. With peaches, pears, Cabernet Franc, Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Gamay, the estate is as rich in history as it is in flavour.
Summit Program Highlights
Three-Course Seated Lunch
12:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.
A delicious lunch designed to spark meaningful conversation. Attendees will be seated with peers from other clubs who hold the same portfolio — Presidents, Treasurers, Membership, Programs, Communications, and more — creating a dynamic “working lunch” for sharing ideas and best practices. All meals include salad, dessert, and non-alcoholic beverages (coffee/tea/pop).
Keynote Address
NNAC President Suzanne Brett Welsh will share updates on national initiatives and club engagement.
Breakout Sessions
Connect with members from clubs across the country. A detailed agenda will follow. Send questions and ideas for these breakout sessions to nnac.executive@gmail.com.
Who’s Invited
We hope to welcome representatives from all NNAC member clubs, but we do have a 100-person limit.
Registration will roll out to club board members initially, before opening to non-board members.
Note that we are planning to rotate these events, and the Western Region will host a second Summit in 2027.
Registration
Registration is closed. We hope to run smaller regional lunch meetings in the Fall of 2026.
NOTE: Plenty of free, onsite parking at the Honsberger Estate Winery. The parking area is a little rough, but the venue is on ground level and is accessible.
