The Annual Convention is held in a warm weather location in the US or internationally and is designed for members and their spouses/guests. At this annual meeting of the membership, DCA holds elections for the Board of Directors. A key feature of the convention is the annual auction, which has grown over the years and is the primary fundraiser for the operations of the DCA. The week-long event is supported through the generous sponsorship of our associate members and features first-rate speakers at business sessions, networking events, and local activities. Recipients of the scholarships and the Arthur T. Everham Safety Award are announced at the convention. The final board meeting of the outgoing president and the first board meeting of the new president are held at the convention. A Leadership Council meeting is held, as are meetings of the committees. The general meeting of the membership is the DCA Town Hall, where leadership provides an update on association proceedings and where the members can dialog with leadership.

Registration will open in December 1, 2025.
