I would like to congratulate our own Twilla Shrout, elected as ASPAN's President-Elect and Armi Holcomb as our Region 2 Director. I'm glad to have had the opportunity to serve in ASPAN's Representative Assembly and thereby providing our component a voice in ASPAN. Aside from the interesting topics presented, it was a good networking field from fellow PACU nurses, knowing that we all share the same issues all over the states. We are planning a seminar on September 22, 2012 at St. Joseph Hospital and I will be looking forward to seeing you all there. Cherri Guevara, President, MOKAN PANA
