Hello South Central Region,

The VBMA here at the University of Missouri had a very fun and productive end to the year. We recently hosted an etiquette dinner on the evening of June 15th in which we nearly doubled attendance from 2008-2009. We would like thank the lead of Ms. Kari Utterback, our etiquette instructor from the University Club of MU, for an evening of learning and entertainment.

Our board also got the pleasure of meeting with Dr. Peggy Fisher of Pfizer Animal Health who gave us insight into speakers for topics of interest for next year. We truly look forward to working with Dr. Fisher.

We hope that all of you had as dynamic end of the year as we did here at MU and that you are looking forward to next year.

Enjoy Your Summer!
