PRESIDENT'S COLUMN
Wow! The last meeting of the year is upon us. Thank you for caring enough about our profession to want to pursue constant improvement. That pursuit brings great satisfaction, doesn’t it? Not to mention excellence in patient care.
You won’t want to miss this November meeting. It has been a fantastic year of continuing education and camaraderie at DVAVM. Remember to thank our sponsors and exhibitors. I hope you have a happy Thanksgiving, a merry Christmas and a joyous New Year.

We also plan on having a bulletin board with the same notices available at the seminars. There are several ways to have your notices posted. First, you could fax or email the notices to our office. Second, you may provide the copy to our registrars for posting. Web notices may be
edited due to space limitations.
