SWATA Executive Board has successful mid winter meeting

This past weekend in El Paso, Texas your SWATA Executive Board met regarding all things SWATA. We also co-hosted a member reception with the Sun City Athletic Trainers' Association. The member reception was especially enjoyable because we on the executive board were able to meet and talk with athletic trainers that work and live in the El Paso area.

During the course of the two day meeting the executive board got reports from the NATA, the TSATA, the AATA, and all of your hard working committees. We also acted on the requests that many of the committee chairs had. On Sunday morning we heard proposals from several hotel properties in Houston that would like to host the 2013 SWATA Annual Meeting. Finally we were brought up to speed on this year's annual meeting that will be held in Arlington this July. Program chair Tina Bonci has done an outstanding job with the program and members will be able to obtain 19 CEU for a two and one half day meeting. Look to this blog and also the SWATA website (http://www.swata.com) for more information on this meeting.

There is still one more week to nominate someone for either Vice President, Secretary, or Arkansas state representative. Also nominations for many SWATA awards including Hall of Fame and the newly established Most Distinguished Athletic Trainer are open for another week. For more information check the SWATA website.
