*OPS Special Events in Orlando*
During each Annual Program, the OPS hosts Special Events such as the
Scientific Paper Session, Awards Presentation, Welcome Reception with JJJ
Raffle, the J. Donald M. Gass Memorial Lecture and the OPS Membership
Meeting.  This year we have added two new special events that are listed in
the program:  “Get to Know your Society” on Saturday from 12:30 – 1:30pm and
the “20 Year Anniversary of OCT” course on Sunday from 11:00 – 12:30pm.  We
are also adding a few social events that weren’t ready to be released in
time for the program’s printing.  We hope that you can join us for
these events!


*OPS Photo Scavenger Hunt*
Time:                            Friday, October 21st during OPS Welcome
Reception
Registration                  6:30 – 7:30
Scavenger Hunt            7:45 – 9:00
Location:                      Ballroom B
During the Welcome Reception, we will gather to create teams for the first
OPS Photo Scavenger Hunt. Unlike a regular scavenger hunt where items are
collected, a photo scavenger hunt has you find and photograph the objects
from a list with your team in them. All of these items on the scavenger hunt
will be found inside Ballroom B.  To give you an idea of what your team may
be hunting for: you may be asked to take a picture with an FOPS, with a
first time OPS Program attendee, or with Mickey Mouse ears (it is
Orlando!).  Images from digital SLRs, digital point and shoot cameras and
camera phones will be acceptable.  Participants who complete all items on
the scavenger hunt will be entered into a drawing for the grand prize!


*Personal Photography Night
*Hosted by:        Mark Maio and Hector Mendez-Caratini
Time:                Saturday 7:30 – 9:00pm
Location:          Rosen Plaza Hotel, Room TBA
Many OPS members take pictures of eyes by day and make pictures of the
outside world during their nights and weekends.  If you are attending the
OPS Annual Program in Orlando, we welcome your personal photography
submissions. This event is open to both those who are showing images and
those who want to see what others are up to! We will combine all accepted
entries into a slideshow and each photographer will have the opportunity to
give a brief overview of their personal work.  This is a great way to learn
about the “other” side of many colleagues you have only known through
ophthalmology.  Please contact Sonya Brooker at sunshine28409@xxxxxxxxx for
submission details.  Act quickly!  *Only the first 15 entries before October
1st will be accepted.
