We're excited to officially unveil BPA's 2026–27 membership theme: ELEVATE YOUR LEGACY! ⛰️ This year, we're challenging every BPA member to dream beyond the moment and make the most of every opportunity. Whether you're stepping into a leadership role, competing on the national stage at #BPANLC2027 in Denver, serving your community, or mentoring the next generation of members, every experience is an opportunity to grow—and every action helps shape the legacy you'll leave behind.

Because legacy isn't about recognition. It's about the impact you make, the people you inspire, and leaving your chapter, school, and community stronger than you found them.

So, how will you...
⛰️ Elevate your leadership?
🏆 Elevate your skills?
🤝 Elevate those around you?
✨ Elevate your legacy?

We can't wait to see where this year takes you. Tag your chapter, share your goals, and tell us how you plan to #ElevateYourLegacy this year! by @bpaconnect
