The U.S. Dental Tennis Association sounds fun

I swung by the Midwinter Meeting exhibit hall booth for the United States Dental Tennis Association this morning to see what it's all about. The rep at the table told me the organization holds two continuing ed seminars each year, featuring a conference on the east coast in the spring and on the west coast in the fall.

Dental professionals at the seminars attend courses each morning, "then play tennis the rest of the day," the rep said.

He said the group is mostly made up of dentists, but they also allow for "auxiliary members" including dental assistants, hygienists and even attorneys.

The organization's website says its membership currently consists of more than 300 dentists from the United States and Canada. The next meeting is scheduled for April 22 through 28 in Kiawah Island, S.C.
