Happy New Year Everyone!!!!
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year and enjoyed the holidays with their families! It is the time of year to start thinking about our annual John F. Johnston Annual meeting in Chicago. While it is rather chilly there right now, I hope we are able to see many of you this year at the meeting!
I am excited to inform you that we will be starting a new tradition at McCormick and Schmicks Restaurant this year! We have one in Indy and it is wonderful! We look forward to a fun night and dinner starting at 6:00pm on Saturday February 24th, 2024. The address is 1 E Wacker Dr. Chicago IL 60601.
We look forward to seeing many of you as we introduce and welcome the new members and congratulate the award winners! Obviously we always love catching up with our old classmates as I encourage you to reach out to our long lost members! Chicago is always a great place to meet up with classmates, share stories and catch up on life after residency! I will be sending out an RSVP soon. Please RSVP on Facebook if that is easier.
This past year has been very busy as we had a wonderful turn out at the Refresher Course in June! We had a great 2 days of speakers, food, social events and camaraderie! Thank you to everyone that helped and attended. Please post your pics on Facebook as this is the only social media site at this point we are sharing.
A couple of more book keeping items! The cost of dinner is $80 per person. Residents do not pay for dinner as this is supported by the members. Please remember that the dues that we pay per year are what help support our residents. We have not increased the cost in many years! They are $50 per year. Please make sure to update any contact information with me as we are only contacting via email and Facebook. We are also asking for donations to the various scholarship funds. I will provide a donation sheet with the RSVP shortly. Please again, consider supporting this great program!!!
I look forward to seeing many of you in a less then 2 months in beautiful Chicago!!! Safe travels and please feel free to reach out with anything!!
Thanks

I am so excited that we are less then 2 months from the John F. Johnston Refresher Course, June 9-10 we will be gathering and learning together with great speakers and wonderful friendships! Please take the time to register for the course here: http://go.iu.edu/4M1m
The courses will be held at IU School of Dentistry and the hotel with a room block is the JW Marriott. We are currently still waiting on the registration link for that block as there has been a change in liaison recently. Sorry this has taken so long as this has been what I have been waiting on.
We are so excited to have many members coming from out of the country and obviously from all over the USA. You will find our current agenda on the website very soon! We have a great social event planned for Friday night at Harry and Izzy’s in downtown Indianapolis.
We will be touring the school and facilities and enjoying some downtime catching up with good friends. There are many people that I have not been able to reach though my different attempts so please try to pass this information along to any classmates you wish to see in June!!!
I look forward to seeing many of you soon!
