Thanks also to Michael Lacy and the faculty, staff, and students of the <strong>Poultry</strong> <strong>Science</strong> Department<br />
and the College at the University of Georgia It is great to be back having the annual meeting<br />

Steve Koenig, and director of business operations, Jon Cole, for their outstanding work coordinating<br />
this meeting None of us know all of the thousands of details that are needed to assure the<br />
success of our meeting, especially with all of the other challenges the <strong>Poultry</strong> <strong>Science</strong> <strong>Association</strong><br />
had before it this year We are indeed fortunate to have both of them working for us Others<br />
who have been key contributors to organizing the logistics of the meeting are FASS staff at the<br />
