2024 Annual Conference Agenda
Come meet other registered dietitians, dietetic interns, and students at Mugshots Grill (204 N 40th Ave, Hattiesburg, MS 39401) on April 3rd between 6:00-8:30. The board members who can attend will not be able to be there until 7:00, but we encourage people to go when it is convenient for them. Even if you cannot make it to the conference, we encourage everyone to come to the meet-up. There will be a room reserved for our group. This is a pay-your-own way event, and a great opportunity to meet and visit with other RDs, dietetic interns, and students.
