Submitted April  2007

Good news for all the “landlubbers” who were unable to cruise in April! The Executive Board will offer a FREE (you read it right –F –R- E- E!) continuing education offering in 2008 covering the cruise content Healthy Lifestyles & Balanced Living for Occupational Well-Being: Evidence & Clinical Applications. We can’t offer the entire cruise experience but we will have fun and learn a lot. We’ll announce the dates at the annual conference.  

The last continuing education offering for 2007 is the annual conference. Jennifer Campbell and the OTA students of Tulsa Community College are the conference chairs and site hosts. Save the conference dates, Friday, September 28th & Saturday, September 29th, and watch for more information.

Cruising Along: The final ruling on passport requirements for sea travel will be published later this year. I’ve seen some reports that indicate that passports will not be required to leave and reenter the US on our cruise. Best advice is to obtain or update your passport now.
