Hello,
Once again it is time that we start a new year in our chapter. This past year has gone by very quickly. We had a lot of wonderful educational programs one of which was a trip to the zoo that was a lot of fun. In March AORN Congress was held in Chicago, our chapter sent 9 delegates. We all had a great time and learned a lot. One of our delegates attended for the first time, that was exciting.
Elections were held in May. We have a good slate of officers for the following year. I want to extend a BIG thank you to last year’s officers they did a great job. Thank you to all the members who come to the meetings. It takes everyone to have a successful chapter.
June is our last meeting before the summer break. Enjoy the summer, be safe and I look forward to seeing everyone in September.
