As I watched my dog run around our yard this morning, I was able to take a minute and realize that February is almost over and the signs of spring are all around. The snow has melted, the days are growing longer, and my flowers are starting to grow. With spring right around the corner, WMSHP is getting ready for our busiest time of the year.
Our next meeting will be held on March 15 at the Lawrence Education Center Auditorium on the campus of Borgess Medical Center. Tracey Mersfelder, PharmD will be presenting a topic entitled "Grow to Your Health".
Congratulations to Katie Wenzel and Gregory Blank II! Dr. Wenzel and Dr. Blank were selected by the board out of over 20 entries to present their residency projects at our meeting on Friday, April 13 to be held at the last Grand Rapids Griffins game of the year. Mark your calendars and watch for the RSVP to come out earlier than usual so that we can ensure enough seats for everyone who wants to attend. Family and friends are welcome!

Well, it appears Old Man Winter did not forget about us after all. Snow and frigid temperatures are back and winter has officially begun but that isn't stopping WMSHP.
The January meeting resulted in good attendance and a very informative talk on heart failure by Dr. Michael Mitchuka. Despite the threat of dangerous roads and heavy snowfall, many members were able to attend. I can only hope for similar results for the remainder of the winter months.
Brad Miller, PharmD will updating us on recent happenings in Emergency Medicine. The meeting will be held at Saint Mary's Lacks Cancer Center on February 9.
Attention Pharmacy Residents! Don't forget to submit your Great Lakes Project abstract to WMSHP if you would like the opportunity to present your project to our members at our April meeting.
