BCMA 86th Presidential Inauguration and Dinner

The theme was Lady Luck Casino and the event was most certainly Vegas style. 


Members had a fun-filled night and tried their luck at blackjack, roulette, and slot machines while celebrating the inauguration of Dana V. Wallace, M.D. as the 86th BCMA President.
The Broward County Medical Association unites 1,700 physicians, of all specialties, as well as Physician Assistants, toward the fulfillment of a common goal:

ASMPSFL…New Energy On A New Mission


Today marked the long awaited Chapter Leadership Training for those members interested in volunteering for leadership roles in the South Florida Chapter of the American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP SFL).



Shawn Henry, National President of the association and Kevin Lock, National Treasurer led an outstanding information packed 7 hour workshop, so that a new infrastructure and vision could be developed for the chapter.




Those present developed a new mission statement, for ASMP SFL…



“Instilling and promoting camaraderie, creativity, and successful business practices among professional visual creatives”.





This reflects the new direction to be taken by the current board and those wishing to assume leadership positions.





Among the visual creatives from ASMP SFL who were present were:


 

Liz Dawes-Ordonez, Sid Hoeltzell, Kate Benson, Sandy Levy, Deborah Gray Mitchell, Vincent Devries, Mark Vacker, Ron Glazer, Pascal Depuhl, Jorge Cardenas and Scherley Busch.
