Please join me in thanking Delores Banfield for her 2 years’ service as the president of our component. She is returning to school for her bachelor’s in dental hygiene. Delores is handing her gavel to Andrea Higgins, who is taking a second term as Greater Seattle DHS president. We have some new members who have stepped up to take on Secretary and Membership. Crystal Maaseide is secretary and Vanessa Criddle is Membership chair. Of course, Gail Arshon is continuing her service as Treasurer.

On June 5, Clydene Evans-Wenzel and myself had a great time at Special Olympics, once again manning a bean bag toss booth at the soccer fields at Fort Lewis.

We have already begun preparations for a Sealant Day to take place in 2011.

Calling all Greater Seattle DHS members! We are now looking for delegates for the November 2010 House of Delegates, to take place in Lynnwood. Please contact me if interested.

We are lining up some great speakers for our September and October meetings. We are looking forward to Susan Clark from Xlear/Spry to discuss xylitol products with us on September 14th. Our speaker for our October 12 meeting, Dr Matt So, will be discussing the science of wellness. We will not have a November meeting, encouraging our members to attend symposium. Please check our website for additional information regarding continuing education topics and speakers..

Our general meetings take place at the Good Shepherd Community Center, room 202, 4649 Sunnyside Ave N, Seattle. As in the past, we will be meeting on the second Tuesday of the month. Meetings take place from 7-9:30pm, and offer 2 credits of continuing education. The executive board of GSDHS meets at the Marie Callendar's restaurant in Northgate, from 7-9pm periodically.
