    These winners look so wonderful and I congratulate all their efforts! Can we get some hyperlinks in here for ease of stalking their efforts? :) Looking forward to reading/browsing their award winning work.

    Thought I would try and be helpful -the hyperlink for the UCSF Newsletter is http://www.scribd.com/word/document_edit/120861939?return_to_doc=true The one on our website isn't the most revised version (but will be updated shortly). Thanks!

    Do you have to use Crest products to qualify for the Community Dentistry Awards? If so, how do you get them?
    • Kim Schneider Monday - 25 / 03 / 2013
      Hi there. The rules and judging criteria for the Community Dentistry Awards can be found here: http://asdanet.org/awards/gc/community.aspx. Your chapter must submit an intention form and you'll be connected with a Crest representative who will give your chapter $100 worth of supplies. Good luck and thanks for your interest!

    That picture of me is not embarrassing at all.

      I love that photo :) Be prepared to see more of it around ASDA pubs...

    Hi Kim, Where can you find the intention form on the link you provided above? Thanks!

      There will be a call for proposals/intention forms this summer--expect something around July 1! Thanks again for your interest.
