NZAMM 40th Anniversary Spring Retreat 2021 – CANCELLED

September 23, 2021 - September 25, 2021

We regret to inform that the planned 40th Anniversary NZAMM meeting has been CANCELLED owing to the current COVID-19 situation.

Also, once lockdown ends and Level 2 prevails, practitioners will be busy catching up on patients who were unable to be seen and will be cautious about travel.

I am particularly sad for NZAMM retirees who we would have been meeting with after a gap of many years, and who have a wealth of knowledge and experience to share.

We need to celebrate together what has been achieved over the 40+ years.

It becomes less relevant to have a 40th Anniversary as time goes by but we are considering the following alternatives at dates still to be confirmed:

1.      A 2-hour ZOOM education event  “Turning your clinical questions and treatment methods into evidence” – Guest Speakers Professors Tim Woodfield,  Gary Hooper, and others TBC.

This would be followed by our AGM

2.      Forming a ZOOM group interested in putting together historical documents and a photo gallery along with archiving and website options

3.      Running a delayed anniversary gala dinner at a future date to be determined. We might be 45 by then!

 

Please let Brenda or Jenny know if you have an interest in being involved and/or attending any of these options.

Meanwhile take care and look after yourselves/ your practices and your families.
