I hope this letter finds you all well and hopefully really busy!  This is a quick letter to confirm with all of you that we indeed have changed our annual convention to the spring of 2009.  We are still working on confirming dates and a venue, but we will get those out as soon as possible. 

This change was decided upon by the board after the general discussion during our business meeting in October 2007.  As a board we felt changing the time of year would allow us to find a bigger variety of speakers and possibly a larger attendance by opticians around the state. 

Check our website www.oaak.org regularly for updates, Carl will be posting them as he receives them.  You will hopefully be able to download the registration packet from the website this year, so keep an eye out for that too.  I hope you all have a wonderful and prosperous fall season.  

                                                                                    Thank you,

                                                                                    Michelle Carte
