Imaging technologists are integral to our work.I am very pleased that, for the third year, there will be a Pediatric Imaging Technologists' Course, renamed from "Radiographers' Course to reflect its broader content.The course is again organized and directed by Laura Gruber and Christine Harris with guidance from Steve Simoneaux.The Imaging Technologists' Course is a great opportunity to learn and network.Please consider how your radiology department or group can facilitate the attendance of a deserving technologist (or more) who will surely benefit from this great program!Nashville is an extraordinary city.It is vibrant and full of life.I urge you to take time to explore what Nashville has to offer.The Omni Nashville Hotel is conveniently located close to the rich nightlife of downtown Nashville and close to many great restaurants.Be sure to try the barbecue, Prince's hot chicken and, if to your liking, local libations.Take time to listen to the music!Many choices abound and not just limited to country music.Nashville is a very progressive, diverse, inclusive, welcoming and fun city.It is a perfect environment of our meeting.We thank the people of the city of Nashville and the staff at the truly marvelous Omni Hotel Nashville for their hospitality.This meeting would not be possible if not for the extraordinary support and work of Angela Davis and Kasey O'Dea.They have been two or three steps ahead of me throughout the process.Angela and Kasey -thank you so much!!! Lastly, the SPR meeting is about people.Reacquaint yourself
