MEETING INFORMATION:

 

Please refrain from wearing fragrances to the meeting,
in respect to our chemically sensitive members.

SPECIAL Meeting Notice

Dr. Stephen E. Fry, MD and MS (micro biology) will be our guest speaker. Many of you already know Dr. Fry, but you may not know of his recent research findings in tick borne diseases. He's onto something new and quite dramatic, in my opinion. So, come to learn about his new findings, as well as other aspects of tick borne diseases from the stand point of a physician and clinical laboratory researcher.

PLEASE NOTE: This meeting will not be at our regular location for a number of reasons. For this meeting only - September 19 -, we will be at Scottsdale's new Granite Reef Senior Center, 1700 N. Granite Reef. Take the McDowell exist from Loop 101 (that's about 1 mile south of Indian School) and proceed westerly for about one mile. Turn right on Granite Reef, and enter the second or third driveways on the left. Look for us in room no. 2.

We are fortunate to have secured a room capable of holding 200 people, so please feel free to bring family, friends and anyone else who may be interested in Dr. Fry's presentation. You may also spread the word among the health professionals you know. And, please feel free to copy and liberally distribute the attached flyer, if you wish.
