On behalf of the Executive Committee, I would like to formally extend an invitation to everyone to join us at the upcoming 39th Annual Meeting of the Southern Association for Vascular Surgery.
As you know, this year's meeting will be held on January 14-17, 2015, at the Fairmont Princess in Scottsdale, Arizona, a magnificent resort with a scenic backdrop, provided by Arizona's McDowell Mountains, that pays tribute to Arizona's Spanish Colonial heritage. This resort has received AAA's five-diamond award and boasts 648 rooms, five pools, two TPC championship golf courses, five tennis courts, a world-renowned spa, and many other amenities you may want to take advantage of or you may decide to just relax and enjoy the view!
