The annual AVAA dinner/meeting will be held on Sunday October 15 at 6:00pm at the Phoenix Restaurant (2131 S Archer Ave Ste 2, Chicago, Tel#312-328-0848).

Dr Michael Bishop, our National Anesthesiology Chief, will update us on the latest anesthesia issues happening in Washington. We will also be addressing important issues for the AVAA. If anyone has an agenda item, please email it to me at

We have ordered an excellent banquet dinner (menu below) for all members and spouse. Please RSVP to if you are coming and let me know whether you are bringing your spouse.

I have attached the website from citysearch for the Phoenix Restaurant and a map.
Direction is to take the Red Line to Cermak-Chinatown and the restaurant is five minutes walk from there.
