The 2023 Annual Conference will be here before we know it, along with OACP's Awards Banquet. It's not too early to begin thinking about a fellow OACP member you would like to nominate. In the weeks ahead we will be highlighting several of the OACP awards, with the hopes that you can identify a colleague who is worthy of recognition.

We asked our new members about their hobbies, favorite music genre, where they would travel if given the chance, and their favorite food. Here's how a couple of them answered:

Christopher Anderson - Fishing is my passion, primarily ocean fishing for Salmon, Halibut, Lingcod and rockfish. Music from the 80's. I have traveled a fair amount and would return to Belize. Given the choice Mexican food tops my list of favorites.

Nathan Reynolds - Grandparents to twin grandsons that just turned one! Love the tropics, but need to go back to Europe! Pizza...Duh!
