Alabama Society for Histotechnology

News

If you have any interest in maintaining this web presence for the Alabama State Society for Histotechnology please contact us.  If no one steps forward we will need to take the site down, due to lack of interest.  My recommendation is that someone take the url (http://www.alhistology.org) and create a joomla site, or something equivalent. The present site does not have enough content to worry about. 

I hope each of you will make every effort to attend the NSH S/C. We are very excited to be hosting NSH this year!
We are here to be of assistance and hope that this will be a memorable event for you!
In case you are driving be sure to have your CD’s ready, you may want to add to your list SWEET HOME ALABAMA by Lynyrd Skynyrd and SUMMERTIME ON THE LAKE by Kidd Rock, this will help get you in the right mood!

We all had a great time in Pittsburgh, PA. The workshops were great. It is always good to visit with old friends. I enjoyed visiting with the vendors. Pittsburgh is a beautiful city and the people are friendly. We all had a wonderful time at the PR booth.  Annie Williams with the Greater Birmingham Convention & Visitors Bureau, Birmingham, Alabama joined us. She provided a wealth of information concerning Birmingham, Alabama for the people visiting the PR Booth. We want to thank our supports as follows; Bud’s Cookies, Peanut Depot, and Royal Cup Coffee.
If you would like to volunteer to assist with the NSH, 2009, contact the NSH office.

We are looking forward to hosting the NSH, 2009 in Birmingham, Al. There will not be a state meeting next year or Region III meeting since we will be hosting the 35th Annual Symposium/Convention October 2-7, 2009, 5 Days, Countless Possibilities.

We have two different tee shirts for $10.00 each:
(1) “SWEET HOME ALABAMA, NSH 2009”
(2) “BIRMINGHAM ,The Magic City” NSH 2009

If you would like to purchase a tee shirt call me at 205-939-9639.

We have lost three wonderful fellow histotechs this year, Lou Anne Raby, Jane Hosmer, and Patricia Lynn Couch.

I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
