The theme for UOAC Conference 2006, "Rising Together From the Ashes of Disease", expresses the belief that all who have ostomies have overcome challenges they have been faced with to have vibrant, active lives filled sometimes with joy and happiness, sometimes sadness and difficulties, but always with a sense that life is worth living to the fullest. Over the three days of conference you will be entertained and educationally stimulated as you attend sessions on medical issues pertinent to ostomates, and business sessions related to your chapter. Your registration fee includes all educational sessions, two evening events, an excursion with a small co-payment of $20.00 per person, a lunch and a continental breakfast.
One of the fun events at the Conference is the raffle/fund raiser. Individuals and chapters are asked to send items in advance for the raffle. You might want to choose something representing your town or province.
Packages should be marked "Raffle" and sent to:
Mrs. Ruth Ogden
104 Bessborough Avenue
Moncton, NB E1E 1P9
You are encouraged to stay on and enjoy Moncton and New Brunswick's scenery and hospitality, an experience of a lifetime. As well, New Brunswick is home to the famous reversing falls, the magnetic hill, many miles of beautiful seacoast, and the delights of fresh seafood.
Please join us in Moncton from August 17 to 19, 2006, as we "Rise Together From the Ashes of disease".
EDITOR'S NOTE:
Conference and Hotel Registration forms will be available in the upcoming edition of Ostomy Canada, at the WOA Wine and Cheese Party on May 24th, or can be downloaded from the UOAC Website: www.ostomycanada.ca
