Dear EAST Supporter:

We invite you to join us for the Eastern Association for the Surgery of Trauma’s (EAST) 22nd Annual Scientific Assembly being held January 13-17, 2009 in Orlando, Florida. EAST is a major, international organization of trauma surgeons, emergency physicians, and nurses who are prominent members of the trauma community. Many are recognized academic authorities, directors of trauma centers or intensive care units, and almost all are leaders in their respective medical centers. Approximately 400 of these influential individuals will attend the Annual Scientific Assembly.

EAST believes that the interpersonal interaction among trauma care providers is as important as medical progress. EAST provides supporters a friendly, receptive atmosphere affording you the opportunity to promote improved care of traumatized and critically ill patients.

* Corporate Supporter $4000*: This level of support allows four company representatives to attend the meeting and display throughout the conference. The exhibits are located in a highly visible area, often near the continental breakfast or coffee service areas. This level represents an affordable option that allows for significant opportunity to interact with attendees.

* Platinum Partner: For our closest partners in the care of the injured, a second level is available (exhibit fees still apply). An educational grant allows corporations to partially or fully support conference expenses. Partners receive special notation in the welcome package/syllabus and during the conference announcements. In addition, these supporters will be allowed priority selection of display space. Please contact Ms. Elizabeth Nolan at 336.713.7756 or by email at enolan@wfubmc.org for additional information on the educational grant opportunities that are available.

The EAST Annual Scientific Assembly provides valuable interaction between trauma surgeons and the companies that work with them in the care of the seriously injured. The amount of face-to-face physician interaction and caliber of the surgeons who attend represent an exceptional value to your corporation. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you in Orlando, January 13-17, 2009.

Sincerely,

Ernest F.J. Block, MD, MBA, EMT-P
President

Jeffrey P. Salomone, MD, REMT-P
Recorder/Program Committee Chair
