Presidents Message

Jason Flannagan, D.D.S.

It is always amazing to see the kind

of dedication to organized dentistry given by our members. Whether they serve
on IDDS or IDA Committees, help with
events and projects, or give freely of their
financial resources, it is wonderful to
watch.
We have had numerous events
already this year: Leadership Reception,
Networking Seminar, Women Dentists
Seminar, Ethics, Spring General
Membership Meeting, and most recently,
the IDDS Foundations Vintage Evening.
All of these were successful and enjoyed
by those attending. I personally would
like to thank Carolyn and Paige for making these events happen.
The IDA Annual Session will see

several proposed resolutions related to

term limits and redistricting. That will
require a concentrated effort on behalf
of the entire delegation to discuss what
is best for the future of organized dentistry. Membership is decreasing nationwide, and we need to find a way to keep
our organization moving forward to
meet the challenges that will be faced by
future generations.
Please join us on July 13 for the
Foundations Golf Tournament. We have
a dedicated group of golfers who play
annually, and the $1,000 prize generously donated by First Merchants Bank
is just icing on the cake.
I invite you to my Presidents Fall
Workshop to be held on Thursday,
September 15 at The Garrison Center.
Speaker will be IDDS President-Elect,
Dr. Matt Bojrab who has an excellent
presentation on Stem Cells in Dentistry
that will make for an enlightened discussion.
Its been a Spring that is quickly
slipping into Summer, and its only just
begun; so, as the Indy 500 celebrates
its 100th Running, I invite you to fasten your seat belts and join IDDS for
another fast paced year. Thanks for your
membership and support of IDDS.
