Welcome back from IMPACT 13. The annual AAPA meeting was held in Washington DC from May 25-29. VAPA was represented at a dynamic House of Delegates session. Hopefully many of you were able to attend some of the conference. Elizabeth Dole and Kathleen Sebelius were inspiring. It is a great time to be a PA and what a wonderful opportunity for fellowship.

Our VAPA Summer CME Conference in Virginia Beach is approaching. It is hard to believe July 21-26 is right around the corner. There will be 41 hours of terrific CME as well as great PA networking opportunities. Be sure to register before June 21 for the early bird rates.

Nominations remain open for the 2nd Annual VAPA Awards. Who has made a significant contribution to the PA profession over the past year? The form is simple; please nominate a PA! These honors will be presented during the conference. See the banner for the link.

See you at the beach!
