Making a difference The opening general session will feature a number of dentists from across the coun- try sharing their personal stories — how being a dentist has made a difference in their lives and enabled them to make an impact on their practices, families and communities. The four featured member speakers are Drs. Christina Rosenthal of Memphis, Tenn., Dawn Wehking of Lafayette, Colo., Daryn Lu of Shawnee, Okla., and David Hochberg of Atlanta. Along with a preprogram performance by the University of Colorado–Denver’s a cappella group MIX, the session also will feature an awards presentation to Dr. Frank Andolino, the ADA Humanitarian of the Year, and Dr. Peter Dawson, the ADA Distinguished Service Award winner. Later that day, the annual meeting’s ex- hibit hall will host the Mountain Mixer, open to all registered attendees. The mixer will provide an opportunity to socialize and network with fellow den- tal professionals against a backdrop of live entertainment, food and complimen- tary craft-beer tasting. It will also enable attendees to experience Denver’s diverse and active outdoor lifestyle, including a climbing wall, BMX bikers and slack- line jumpers. The Denver Broncos Stam- pede Drumline, a bluegrass band and Spinphony — a pop baroque string quar- tet — will all perform during the mixer.
