Re: 2020 Annual Convention
Dear KSRT Member,
The KSRT has been closely monitoring the developing COVID-19 situation. At this time and after much discussion, the Board of Directors has made the decision to cancel the rescheduled Annual KSRT Convention due to increasing numbers of cases in our state.
The Board absolutely feels the health and safety of our members and the patients we serve warrant this cancellation. Many of our healthcare partners are experiencing increased demand in patient care and restricting travel for its employees.
The society will be working with the venue to ensure the convention will be held in 2021. Information will be distributed once the Board of Directors meets and has the opportunity to discuss potential dates.
If you have already made a hotel reservation using the KSRT code, the hotel will allow you to cancel your reservation without penalty.
Competition winners will announced in the rotating anode being published in late August/early September as well as on our website and the Facebook page. Please also watch for information regarding the virtual Annual Business meeting being held October 10, 2020 at 11 am. We will be voting on items of importance. Information will be dispersed to all members closer to the meeting date regarding accessing the meeting and ways to vote. We encourage you to follow us on social media and our webpage for information. www.ksrad.org
We are truly sorry for the inconvenience you will incur from this decision; however, the health and safety of our members and the communities we serve is our priority. Providing continuing education, advocating, and your support is very important to the KSRT. As a result of the current climate, the board would like to help you identify sources of CE’s other than the ASRT. Please see the list below.
The following is a list of some opportunities for free CE credits:
