Dear Fellow MSRC Members,

Happy New Year!  I am excited and honored to take on my new role as MSRC President – and I want to say thank you for your continued support of our Society.  I would also like to thank our outgoing president Ric Niemer for his leadership in getting our organization through a challenging 2015. Some of these challenges included a management change to Muchmore, Harrington, Smalley & Associates (MHSA) and moving to a new website; please take a minute to visit our new and improved website at www.michiganrc.org.

We still have challenges ahead but I look forward working with you and our hardworking, enthusiastic leadership team; we will continue to work to promote and strengthen our profession and our organization.   If you are interested in serving our profession and organization, please contact me – we are always looking for RTs who would like to help and have fun along the way!

Already in 2016, we have several events planned, including: 

MSRC Spring Conference – April 13-15, 2016 at the Henry in Dearborn, MI.
MSRC Fall Conference – September 12-13, 2016 at the Bavarian Inn in Frankenmuth, MI.

I hope to see you at these upcoming conferences.  If you have any questions, please contact our Executive Director, Holly Mauk at 517-267-3909 or hmauk@mhsa.com and feel free to contact me directly at jbosanac@med.umich.edu.  I look forward to serving you and our profession in 2016!
 
Thank you – and have a Happy and Prosperous New Year!
Jessica Cusac, MS, RRT
