Communications Director's Message
June 2010
This issue of the APA Focus is focused on information about the 50th Anniversary and the PAS Annual Meeting.
It's always hard for me to choose what I liked best at the meeting. But this year, for me, the highlight had to be the Presidential Plenary and 50th Anniversary celebration. What could be better than a mixture of excellent science, awards for exemplary service to children, reflections on the past and predictions of the future, along with the flood of light and joyful music in the beautiful atrium, all surrounded by colleagues and friends?
The work of the APA goes on year round, so continue to be involved in programs, projects, discussions and collaborations with other APA members. One way is to volunteer to review workshops and abstracts when the calls go out in the late summer and fall. Remember our Facebook page is another way to keep current with APA activities.
Again this year the deadlines for the Denver 2011 will be earlier.
