[Histonet] Career Day in Denver!

[Linda Jenkins]

We need a few more volunteers for Career Day at the NSH 
Symposium/Convention.  Career Day is in its second year of being and 
we are planning for another huge success.  Basically, we have a 
hundred or so high school students who will be attending either a 
morning or afternoon 3 hour, hands-on workshop entitled, "What in the 
World is Histotechnology".  As they travel through the histology 
galaxy, the students will explore embedding, sectioning, staining, 
coverslipping, and photography through the microscope.  They will 
also need tour guides to lead them on a scavenger hunt though the 
exhibit hall.  On Monday, October 29, the morning session is from 
8:30 - 11:30am and the afternoon session is from 12:00 - 3:00pm.  The 
classrooms will be located in a separate part of the exhibit 
hall.  If you have a free morning or afternoon on Monday and would 
like to have a really rewarding experience plus obtain one of our 
special aprons, send Stacey an email at 
<stacey.langenberg <@t> comcast.net>.  Mandatory attendance is required at 
the set-up on Sunday morning at 10:30am - 1:00pm.

We had a blast last year in Phoenix.  Come join us and see what fun 
it is to teach your profession to a teenager interested in the field 
of medicine!

Hope to see you in Denver!
