December 15, 2005 Dear AGS staff, I was extremely surprised when I received the telephone call that announced that I had won the the AGS Publishing scholarship to attend the national ASHA convention in San Diego this past November—I truly didn't believe I had won until I received my plane tickets! I have attended ASHA conferences in the past, but this trip was very special due to the wonderful AGS Publishing staff. I want to thank all of you for allowing me to attend this year. Even with my special needs, you made arrangements for me to be able to fully enjoy the convention. This has been an experience that I will always remember. The poster sessions and short courses were excellent. The sessions concerning school based practices for stuttering and dysphagia were especially helpful in giving practical ways to show progress and involving other school staff in the therapy process. Thanks again and bless all of you. Sincerely, LuAnn Dukes, MEd, CCC-SLP Speech-Language Pathologist, Jesup, GA
