After the joyful, warm and elegant WDS luncheon in San Francisco, it has been very hard to come back to earth.
Kudos to Dr. Mary Lupo and Dr. Richard Odom for arrangements that were absolutely PERFECT. Jan Wahl was remarkably entertaining and everyone looked fantastic in their hats. Maybe we should wear them again next year!
Kudos for our president Dr. Lenore Kakita for making sure that every detail, and presentation was performed in the best possible manner. Her entire year was superb!
Getting to know so many of you at the luncheon, committee meetings, and the networking receptions was a real treat. Dr. Seth Matarassos office was elegant, warm, and entertaining for everyone. Dr. Peggy Crawford and her family made all the officers and committee chairs feel like mayors of San Francisco. Our new executive director, Kerry Parker, CAE and our Administrative Manager, Margaret Wong, made all of the activities as smooth as silk.
Dr. Kathryn Schwarzenberger has taken over the helm of the Newsletter from Dr. Sandra Read. That will be a very tough act to follow.
One of the new task forces the one of the dermatology surgeons - will be highlighted in this newsletter. Congratulations to Dr. Roberta Sengelmann and Dr. Sarah Weitzul for getting the ball rolling. The enthusiasm was palpable.
Please check our website for upcoming Networking receptions being held across the country thanks to the work of Dr. Hilary Baldwins committee. How to hold one, how to pay for it, and all the details are available on the WDS website. We hope to have many this year.
Last, but not least Dr. Suzanne Olbricht who has been working with her committee to make for us an exciting experience at the Old Mill Inn in Toronto, only to have to postpone this event due to the SARS crisis. We hope you will join us in June, 2004 for this favorite event.
My goal this year is to further fellowship, mentorship, and great character in the WDS. Thanks to all of our members and our industry helpers, this goal should be a reality.
Next issue, I hope to be highlighting some of our other committees.
