2018 Meeting & Membership Renewal

Dear Members, Affiliates, and Guests of the Northwest Component,

The next meeting of the Northwest Component of the Edward H Angle Society of Orthodontists is scheduled to take place from January 31 – February 3, 2018.

That is too far off to have a complete program ready, but I can outline what to expect. Affiliate, guest, and member cases will be set up for display by 5pm Wednesday January 31st. Board meeting will also take place Wednesday January 31.

A block of Ocean View rooms has been set reserved at a group rate of US$269 / night. Our group package includes:

• Free self-parking for 1 vehicle / room / night.
• In-room Wi-Fi Internet connections
• One hour of Snorkel equipment for two daily
• One bucket of range balls daily per room.
• 20% off golf merchandise at Hapuna Pro Shop
• 10% discount on golf fees
• One time 10% discount at Hapuna Spa

The scientific presentations will take place in the morning with plenty of time to enjoy the amenities of the surroundings, including the beach, pool, and golf course, in the afternoon and into the evening. Golf tee-times have been arranged for Friday afternoon for NW Angle members, similar to the last time we visited Hapuna.

Although there should be enough guest rooms set aside for the days of the meeting, I would strongly advise you to book your accommodations early, especially if you are planning to extend your stay either before or after the meeting. We will be offered the same rates for these days as for the days of the meeting, but the supply is limited and they are on a first come-first serve basis. For this meeting, we are planning to start each day with breakfast speakers who will cover a variety of interesting topics, so we will therefore have everyone sit down to breakfast together. As stated earlier, it is not too early to consider making room reservations. Get that detail looked after right away.

The trade winds beckon us to the Big Island of Hawaii.

See you there!
Hugh Lamont
