To the Southern District Membership,

It was so good to see everyone at the Norfolk Annual Meeting. If you were unable to attend, please plan to attend next year in St. Louis, MO. The meeting will be held July 8- 12, 2024, at Hyatt Regency St. Louis at the Arch 315 Chestnut Street St. Louis, Missouri 63102. More information to come.

The family-like atmosphere of the Annual Meeting is amazing! The activities are seemingly non-stop as we attend CE sessions and evening events. It is a wonderful time, and you learn so much about your member-led, AMT organization. The business meeting and town hall are such an important time for the delegates framing the organization for all members. If you are fortunate enough to be a delegate, you will really enjoy this meeting. Meanwhile, do not forget your state meetings this fall. Get involved. You will not regret it.

Remember the call for programs is open for speakers for the 2024 Annual meeting until August 28th. Click here for details on how to submit your proposal.

The young observer application for the Board of Directors is open until September 30th. If you are under 40 or within the first five years of your membership learn more and apply.

Congratulations to Sanda Jones from Kentucky and Jeff Wooley from Arizona as newly elected to the National Board and Jill Carlson and Cherry Ann DeCosta-Carter for being re-elected to the Board. Congratulations to Marty Hinkel, President, Harry Narine, Vice- President, Cherry Ann DeCosta Carter, Secretary and Fran Oran, Treasurer. Way to go!

Last, I want to congratulate all National Award Winners!! The Southern District had many award winners, including Order of the Golden Microscope (OGM) recipient, Dr. Georgia McCauley of North Carolina! Congratulations to her and everyone that received an award.

Here for you,
Anna W Catron, MLS, AMT
