Words of Welcome from your Organizing Committee! Registration continues for the CAPD/ACDP Annual Conference in beautiful Banff, Alberta, September 13-14-15, 2018. We have sold out our room block for the host hotel, the Fairmont Banff Springs – however there are still rooms available at both of our additional hotels – The Banff Centre and The Juniper Lodge, both within a few minutes shuttle ride to the Banff Springs. http://conference.capd-acdp.org This year’s meeting includes an additional optional day of CE – our first ever ‘pre- course’ including a full Zirconia Hands-On Workshop sponsored by NuSmile, as well as Dr. Kevin Donly presenting Early diagnosis of Minimally Invasive Restorative Care for Children – in total, up to 19 hours of CE available in one glorious weekend in the gorgeous Alberta Rocky Mountains! The conference theme – ‘Safe & Sound, the Practice of Safety and Wellness in Pediatric Dentistry’ – offers a variety of topics and speakers encompassing many aspects of life and dentistry – from classroom style seating, to scheduling, to meals and social activities – your organizing committee is committed to providing a strong CE opportunity in an atmosphere and environment of wellness… with a Western & mountainous flair, of course! Additional highlights of the 2018 Annual Conference will include the 3M Graduate Student Research Presentations, and the CAPD/ACDP Annual General Meeting. Our Social committee is hard at work creating non-stop energy and entertainment: Thursday evening features a NuSmile-sponsored reception for all those registered for the Zirconia workshop and the Kevin Donly pre- course. Friday’s Welcome Reception on top of Sulphur Mountain is accessible by the Banff Gondola and offers an immense and stunning view of the entire valley…and Saturday’s traditional President’s Dinner will experience a taste of the Old West with a traditional Western BBQ, country-dance and Casino party…shakin’ things up a bit, Stampede style! We look forward to welcoming y’all to our Annual Conference. If you have not yet registered, please do so right away (and definitely before the fee increases on June 12 th ). We are certain that the remaining hotel room blocks will be sold out soon! For further information or inquiries, please contact us via [email protected] See you in Banff in September!
