Many Members have shown dedication to the Association over the years. I am sure we can name a number of current day leaders exhibiting extreme dedication to our Association. These Members have taken the Association to new heights. One way that Members make an impact on the Association is through their work with our Annual Meeting. PDG Members become active by convening symposia or giving presentations.
Technical papers are also a way to become involved.
Each paper and symposium is reviewed before being accepted as a part of the Meeting program. Review the speaker list when making your decision of what conference to attend. Associations such as the Inter-national Association for Food Protection have a personal stake in holding down costs and offering economical registration rates. We encourage you to review the meeting schedule on page 560, then commit yourself to attending this year's Annual Meeting. We look forward to your involvement and seeing you in Atlanta this August.
