    A favorite meeting and symposium venue in Washington, DC. The NPC usually has an impressive and diverse selection of speakers for its Luncheon Speaker Series. Worth the trip from Harford County (MD).

    The free breakfast for members is a must. Plus it is a great place for reporters to file stories if you're working downtown.
