To: Golden Triangle Veterinary Academy members past and present Re: 2022-2023 Lectures

Hello to you all-

We hope that this finds everyone well. It has been our privilege to provide outstanding opportunities for Continuing Education and fellowship to veterinarians across southwestern Ontario for the past 30+ years.

As with many organizations that are fueled by volunteers, it can be challenging to provide continuous and consistent service. This has been ever more apparent these last couple of years, as we are sure you are all aware!

This, along with a myriad of other considerations including: -lack of speakers available
-evolving lecture delivery methods
-costs associate with running in person meetings

-declining membership attendance
We have come to the difficult decision to postpone lectures for the fall of 2022.

We have hope that with a few new volunteers, some feedback from the members on topics/speaker preferences as well as clear preference for either on line or in person meetings, that we will be able to resume with a modified schedule come 2023. And we will be updating you via the GTVA website.

Please reach out to any of the executives if you would like to volunteer or if you have questions or feedback. We want to hear from you and want to do what is best for everyone.

With Kindness,

Patti
