I kicked off the month by joining Dr. Welch's Walk with a Doc. I also had the opportunity to assist with the Oregon Dental Conference. Not only did they put on a great concert, their live band Karaoke party was a massive hit with a lot of people singing and dancing. The same weekend many of our dentists and hygienists assisted Helping Hands Worldwide with a dental clinic in Corvallis. OSU dental students led the charge organizing the event. University of Oregon Dental Students pitched in and volunteered as well.
Later in the month we had our Zest Kitchen and Bar Social sponsored by Columbia Bank Healthcare. A couple of our society's new mom's brought their babies and OSU and UO dental students participated as well. It was a perfect day for an indoor event, as their was quite a bit of rain. It was great to see everyone that came to the event.
In May we have three classes. On May 9th we have our special event at the Oregon Coast Aquarium. We have a special speaker Brittany Cox, RDH, MA coming to speak on Green Dentistry. The event includes luncheon, admission, and 2 CE credits. The event is free for members of Coastal Cascades Dentist Society dentists. The price is $50 for nonmembers and staff. You can also bring family for $30 and they can join us for the luncheon and enjoy aquarium admission. Since this event is on May 9th please RSVP as soon as possible so I can have the right amount of food ordered and put your name on the admissions list. Later in the month we have Erin Elliot speaking on Sleep Apnea. Her first course on Thursday evening (May 28th) is in Albany at the Phoenix Inn and online. This class is more of an introduction to Sleep Apnea. The Friday morning class on the 29th at Lane Community College is "Beyond the Basics" which will dive deeper into the subject.
We have a new council member, Tyson Curtis! If you are also interested in joining the council reach out to me and you can attend our next council meeting to find out more.
