IMPORTANT NOTICE:

The Lansing Dietetic Association (LDA) is up and running for the 2009-2010 membership year. 

As you may know, LDA was on hiatus for 2008-09 due to vacancies in the president and president–elect positions.  Due to increased interest by both previous and new members, we now have enough members interested in holding Board positions to revitalize the organization.

If you are a previous member of LDA, you should be receiving membership information by mail or email.  We look forward to working with you again!  If you are a member of ADA/MDA and would like more information about opportunities with LDA, please e-mail Elissa Jasko.

Welcome Back, LDA! 

Sincerely,

Past LDA Board:
Emily Ostrowski, Immediate Past President
Gail Hagbom, Treasurer
Mary Niester, Secretary/Membership Chair
Karen Giles-Smith, Communications Chair
Amy Hanover, Nominating Committee Chair
Melissa Lonsberry, Past President & Immediate Past Race Director
