Join your colleagues as we ensure that IACP continues to protect, promote and advance our beloved pharmacy compounding profession. We know that with great challenges, comes great opportunity – so I am reaching out to each and every one of you to be proactive, and seize this opportunity to attend CCH with me, because our profession and your patients need us. Our profession is at a tipping point, and it requires all of us to be present and unified in Washington, D.C. in 2013!” Wade Siefert, RPh, IACP President Click here to hear a heartfelt message from President Siefert. Big Changes, Big Savings Coming in 2013! The 19th Annual Compounders on Capitol Hill (CCH) will be held June 1-4, 2013, at the Crystal Gateway Marriott in Arlington, Va. Located only two miles from Ronald Reagan National Airport (DCA), the Crystal Gateway Marriott offers immediate lobby access to Washington, D.C.’s world-famous Metro system and a quick ride to all the museums, sights, restaurants, and even the Capitol. Selecting a new hotel is part of IACP's strategic plan to bring attendees and exhibitors much needed meeting space, a larger exhibit hall, discounted parking to encourage local compounders’ participation, and a considerably lower hotel group rate. With an expected 300 total attendees in 2013, Compounders on Capitol Hill brings together the top-level compounding pharmacists and technicians from across the country with the same goal – to protect, promote and advance pharmacy compounding.
