Plan to Be at Lake Tahoe for the 2024 VOS Conference!
Greetings VOS Members,
Spring is here, and the snow we enjoyed this winter in Montana is now melting and moving down the watershed to the ocean. However, it is not too early to start planning to be at Lake Tahoe for the 2024 VOS meeting. The site visit at the Everline Resort by Heidi DeCamp and Sarah from the Wolfpack was very encouraging. The meeting facilities, exhibit area and lodging are all tremendous. The skiing opportunities at Lake Tahoe are legendary. As part of the scientific program, we have decided to offer 3 wet labs at the 2024 meeting, so stay tuned for further information.
In the next newsletter I will pass along further details about our Jacques Jenny speaker who will enlighten us about the development and state of the art of joint resurfacing in humans.

Stay well and rest assured your VOS team is hard at work doing all we can to ensure that next year’s meeting will be great.
Yours in service,
Randy Basinger, DVM, ACVS
President, Veterinary Orthopedic Society
