The Ultimate Vet School Reunion: How to Turn WVC Vegas 2026 Into the Friends Trip of a Lifetime
Remember those late-night cram sessions before your anatomy finals? The way you'd text your classmates at 2 AM asking if anyone understood the brachial plexus? The group chat that got you through clinics, boards, and those first terrifying months of practice? Those people deserve more than the occasional "thinking of you" text. They deserve Vegas.
And honestly? You're running out of time to make it happen.
WVC 2026 isn't just another continuing education requirement—it's the perfect excuse to transform professional development into an epic reunion. But here's the thing: it's October 2025 right now, and if you want connecting rooms, that incredible restaurant reservation, or affordable flights, you need to start planning yesterday.
Why WVC 2026 Needs to Be Your Reunion
Let's be honest: life after vet school scatters everyone. Someone's doing emergency medicine in Seattle, another's running a practice in rural Tennessee, and you're all drowning in appointments and surgeries and the daily chaos of veterinary medicine. When was the last time you were all in the same place?
WVC solves this. It's the one time everyone has a legitimate reason to be in the same city, at the same time, doing something that actually matters for your careers. The CE credits are real, the hands-on courses are incredible, and the networking is invaluable. But the real magic? That's the after-hours reunion that reminds you who you are beyond "Doctor."
The FOMO is real: Your classmates are already texting about it. Someone's already looked at flights. There's probably a group chat forming right now that you're not in yet. Don't be the person who sees all the Instagram stories in February and thinks, "I should have gone."
