Capital District Dietetic Association President's Message
August
Welcome to the 2011 - 2012 season of CDDA! As I write this first President's message to all of you, I'm enjoying a summer day at home. This season of summer has been full of sunshine, humidity and heat this year. Just as this season of heat will eventually change over to the cool breezes of fall, our season of CDDA will start with a taste of seasonings, rather than seasons. We'll share summer stories and tasty food while learning from our very own Connie Bussard. She's offered to host the meeting and be guest speaker in her home.
But before I get to salivating thinking about the September meeting, I do want to welcome the new Board members: Katie Horstmeyer and Emily Bailey as Co-President Elects and Deb Durham as Treasurer. I look forward to getting to know them as dietitians and as friends.
Since CDDA is your association, I would like to hear from you if there's anything Charlyn and I can do to make our programs, activities, website and newsletter more meaningful for you. Or if you have a talent to share or want to develop particular skills, CDDA is here for you. Let's keep our district vibrant and thriving! Speaking of thriving, have you heard the latest on our aprons fundraiser? It continues to be successful. For each apron sold, we can now be better assured of keeping our budget “well seasoned” and make ends meet.
If you want to become a member of our association, please print the membership form found below on this web page and mail it to the Treasurer's address listed at the bottom of the application. I hope to see you at our September meeting and meetings throughout the coming year!
