Tax Retreat may have a full agenda, but some of the best memories happen when you explore together. 🤠 These are just a few snapshots of #TaxRetreat26 attendees exploring the San Antonio River Walk, escaping the room, and trying their hand at a cooking class. What was your favorite side quest? 👀

We love hearing what attendees take home from Tax Retreat. 💭 Sometimes it's a new strategy. Sometimes it's a new friendship. And sometimes it's renewed inspiration and a deeper connection to the profession we all share. That's what keeps us coming back year after year. 💙 #TaxRetreat26

We're already dreaming about 2027, from sessions and activities to... where we'll all meet next. 👀 If you haven't completed the #TaxRetreat26 attendee survey yet, there's still time...

One of the highlights of #TaxRetreat26 was this open conversation with National Taxpayer Advocate Erin Collins, facilitated by Terry Lemons. Real questions, honest discussion, and a unique opportunity to hear directly from one of the most important voices in tax.

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸 We hope your weekend is full of good company, good food, freedom, fireworks... and absolutely no one asking, “Hey, while I’ve got you, can I ask you a quick tax question?” 🙄🤐 Have a safe and happy Fourth! ❤️🤍💙

Our Group Dinners at #TaxRetreat26 brought together new friends, familiar faces, and plenty of great conversations. 🤠 🍽️ These are just a few snaps of attendees enjoying each other's company and some delicious meals. No planning, no wondering who to eat with—just good food and great company. 💙

Interactive sessions are some of our favorites. 🤠 There's just something about getting people involved and learning together. Deb and Jen jumped right into Brenda's From Chaos to Control session with SchedulEase. Participating, engaging with the ideas, and trying something new. 💙 #TaxRetreat26

One of our favorite things is hearing what people take away... and "vacation with all my accounting friends" might be one of our favorite descriptions yet. 💙 While we love the learning, the real magic happens when people come together, share ideas, and build friendships. #TaxRetreat26. 🤠

Somehow it's already the last day of #TaxRetreat26. 😢💙 We've got one more morning of learning, sharing ideas, and spending time with this amazing community before Closing Celebrations at Casa Rio. Take it all in. Exchange contact info. Have that conversation. Let's make it a great day, y'all! 🤠

While folks are on side quests, exploring the city, or hanging out with friends, Antonio found his way to the NBA Finals with his new buddy AJ. Lucky duck. 🏀🦆 Making memories. Having fun. Just another night at #TaxRetreat26. 🤠

Day 2 at #TaxRetreat26 was all about building better together. 🤠 From branding and communication to CAS and partnerships, the conversations challenged us to think differently. And as always, some of the best moments came from the people around us. What inspired you most today? 👀

Day 2 is all about making the work work for us. 🤠 Today we're talking brand, understanding how we're wired, the CAS craze, building partnerships, and finding better ways to work, communicate, and grow. Take a look at the agenda and get ready for another day of great conversations and ideas you can

Morning y’all 🚿🦆 We might be moving slow this morning, but there’s probably good reason... 🤠 Dinner with friends. Unexpected adventures. Spotting celebrities. Cards Against Humanity. Now it’s time to get moving. All the Right Moves starts at 9:00 AM, and we’ve got another great day ahead. 💙

Coffee? Check. ☕ Name badge? Check. 🤠 Ready for a great day? We sure hope so. 😎 Learning. Conversations. New connections. A few laughs. And probably at least one moment that makes you think, "I never thought about it that way." What's at the top of your list for Day 1? 👀

Good morning. ☀️🦆 How'd you sleep? Hope you're ready for Day 1 of #TaxRetreat26! 🤠 Packet pick-up starts at 8:15 AM, and our Welcome Session kicks off at 9:00 AM. Grab some breakfast, find your people, and try not to judge anyone based on what's on their plate. (Yes, I am #TeamPancake 🥞)

Antonio checking in. 👀 🦆 There are friends to catch up with, stories to tell, and plenty of things to do around San Antonio...🤠🍹 But don't forget to get some rest. Tomorrow is our first *full day* of learning, conversations, and #TaxRetreat26 adventures. Goodnight! 😴

It’s officially Day Xero, and we’re excited to kick off #TaxRetreat26 this evening. 🩵🤠 We’ll be gathering at the Bombay Bicycle Club Hemisfair location, just a few minutes from The Plaza Hotel & Spa. We’ve included a handy little map to help you find your way. See y’all soon!
