A few weeks ago we started a new social media contest that accompanied the unveiling of our new convention website. It was built around the philosophy that there are many words that can be used to describe athletic trainers, but only one word that brings them all together, that word being convention. So we put the call out to tell us what word you think best describes ATs and post it using the hashtag #ATsAre with a photo or video. We're at about the midpoint of the contest and have already received some great entries. We wanted to highlight some of them here and encourage everyone to submit (or keep submitting) their own. And all submissions qualify for prizes including complimentary NATA 2015 registration, housing and airfare. The contest ends Nov. 14, so there are still a couple of weeks left.
