The WSDLA wants to see what re-energizes you when you’re out of the lab! Whether it’s volunteering, fishing, gardening, or skydiving, we want you to share those moments with us! Not only will we share your experiences with your fellow members in the contact newsletter, but we will be using the most exciting and creative photo that represents our local area and talent for the theme of the 2019 Northwest Lab Forum.

To start this new tradition the 2018 Northwest Lab Forum is titled “Pathways to New Heights.” The cover photo was taken at the nationally known climbing area “Frenchmen’s Coulee “in Vantage, Washington in the spring of 2017. The climber is me, Christopher Delarm, CDT WSDLA President Elect, scaling the climb “Vantage Point” (5.9 sport climb).  Dr. Urvi Ruparelia, DMD is on belay at the bottom of the picture and the photo was shot by Bates Dental Technology advisory board president Robert Flowers, RG.

So let’s see what gets you going after the lab closes. Please submit your photos and stories about your experience to the association. Every experience will be placed in the Contact online newsletter but one special experience will be chosen by the chairs each year to be the cover and title of the NW Lab Forum! The winning contestant will receive a complimentary Saturday Registration plus Regulatory Standards Seminar into the Forum. Can’t wait to see what drives you and thank you for your continued support of the WSDLA!

Submit photos to Rachel Sullivan at wsdla@executiveoffice.org by February 23, 2018 for a chance to be entered to win!
