Fellowship Fair:

This was the first year the CAS approached all of the teaching centres to take a table at their Fellowship Fair. This allowed each centre to encourage the fourth year Residents to apply for Fellowships at their institutions. Our table was staffed by Dr. Miguel Arango and Mrs. Lois Hayter. Many good contacts were made.
