2010 Capitol Hill Day
2010 Capitol Hill Day is in the Books!
Nearly 200 athletic trainers and athletic training students gathered in Washington, D.C. to participate in NATA's Capitol Hill Day 2010. The attendees had a record number of meetings with legislators and used that time to ask for their support for HR 1137. For pictures from the event, visit NATA Photozone.
