Saint Louis University was proud to be selected to host the 2013 Annual Meeting of the Missouri Athletic Trainers' Association on May 31 and June 1, 2013. SLU Athletic Training faculty member Kitty Newsham, who is also President-Elect of MoATA, coordinated the meeting which included a full weekend of fellowship and professional development!

SLU AT Program Director Tony Breitbach helped provide local coordination of the tailgate fundraiser at Busch Stadium on Friday and the Saint Louis University Athletic Training Society (SLATS) hosted a breakfast fundraiser on Saturday. SLATS members who got up early to work the breakfast included
Andria Lampe, Jay Maturan, Jose Mendez, Kyle Marquitz and Michael Sickels.
