President’s Message
by Gizelle P. Richard, D.D.S. – NODA President

It is hard to believe that it is already April and Spring has arrived! Get outside and enjoy the wonderful weather!
I would like to thank all those who attended the President’s Installation Banquet in March. All of you made this a very special event for me and my family. A special shoutout to Dr. Frank Martello who gave a beautiful invocation, and to Dr. Glenn Dubroc who presided as Master of Ceremonies. Congratulations go out to our Honor Dentist, Dr. Don Bennett… well deserved! And of course, we could not have had such an awesome event without the planning and attention to detail that Andrew Hale provided!
Heading our list of events this month is our Annual Crawfish Boil on April 9th. Dr. Jimmy Burns has organized a fun event for all to enjoy! Be at “The Kamp” in Harahan to enjoy a fun evening of beer and crawfish with your dental colleagues.
Don’t forget to register for the New Orleans Dental Conference/LDA Annual Session from May 6th - 8th at The Hilton Riverside. Classes are filling up. Go online to www.nodc.org. Come out to the NODC, have fun and get some great CE. Mail in registration ends April 1st!
Your participation, input, and financial support of our NODA events are greatly appreciated.
See you at the Crayfish Boil!
