Here's what we loved the most. Posted by [Melissa Colopietro](https://blog.heartlandschoolsolutions.com/author/melissa-colopietro) on Aug 16, 2022, 9:58:13 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) After two years of virtual conferences, the Heartland team was excited to attend #ANC22 in person. There's nothing better than having the opportunity to interact and have fun with so many nutrition professionals from across the country. Since this year's conference was in person, we wanted to make our booth extra inviting. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to play games, win prizes, and check out our immersive demos on the lawn. We loved having the opportunity to not only reconnect, but also discuss upcoming challenges and share how we can support your team this school year. Check out our favorite parts of #ANC22 below: Setting you up for success Heartland is here to strengthen your nutrition program by partnering with you and your staff. Our solutions are designed to do more with less. The demos on the lawn allowed us to showcase some of the free tools, [resources](https://info.heartlandschoolsolutions.com/support-central), and new features we're most excited about. Reconnecting We've missed seeing you in person! We were able to chat and celebrate school nutrition programs with hundreds of professionals. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth and said hi. Games & Prizes We created the ultimate backyard bash at #ANC22. Our team had such a blast playing putt-putt, cornhole, and more with other attendees. Four lucky attendees also won a Surface Pro for connecting with us during the event. It's never too late to reach out to us!
