Dear Fellow Members:

On behalf of the BMANA, we cordially invite and welcome you to attend the 2009 Annual Convention of the BMANA. The 29th Annual Convention will be held from Thursday, July 30th through Sunday, August 2nd 2009 at the Florida Hotel and Conference Center, Orlando, Florida. We have arranged a 4-day official program and opportunities for Chapters and Alumni groups to meet on their own as well. The information about general program and registration material are available on this website and your rapid response will help the convention committee in planning the details.

Valuable feedback from members has been taken into account to enhance your experience at the convention. As you will see, we are again starting our program on Thursday and we would like to urge you to arrive on or before Thursday so that you can participate fully. The highlights of this convention will include:
1. CME program
2. Forum for researchers to present their work
3. Discussion sessions which will be of interest to the members and the next generation
4. A wonderful trip to Sea World and dinner
5. Social and cultural programs similar to previous years
Under the leadership of BMANA Florida chapter, extensive arrangements are being made so that you and your family will have an enjoyable experience. Please return to www.bmana.com for details and updates.

As in the past, our goal is to expand our membership to include as many physicians of Bangladeshi descent as possible. Your efforts to recruit new members, with special attention to the second generation, will be greatly appreciated.

So, please plan to join at the 29th BMANA Annual Convention. It promises to be a great meeting scientifically in a location that is attractive and includes many exciting attractions for physicians and their families. We hope to see you in Orlando!
