The NYSAFP Foundation will honor George Hart, MD, for his years of service to patients and his exemplary leadership within the Academy of Family Physicians at a reception at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, January 18^th in conjunction with our 2013 Winter Weekend January 18^th – 20^th. The 2013 conference will be held at the High Peaks Resort in Lake Placid where Dr. Hart and his family reside.

Dr. Hart served as president of the Academy in 1970-71 and was an active and respected leader in the formation and growth of the Academy and the specialty of Family Medicine. His distinguished career in medicine and his extraordinary achievements as a community leader in Lake Placid epitomize the traditional role of the physician and establish Dr. Hart as a role model for young physicians.

We will honor Dr. Hart by establishing a fund within the NYSAFP Foundation in his name to support our work with medical students and residents in Family Medicine and to develop the leadership and advocacy skills of family physicians in the model which Dr. Hart and so many of his colleagues in the Academy have done over the years.

We hope to make this event a fitting tribute to Dr. Hart. We invite you to report on this event and attend and cover the tribute on January 18^th.

Donations to the Dr. hart Fund may be made directly to the NYSAFP Foundation via PayPal on our webpage: http://www.nysafpfoundation.org/index/donate-now-5.html.

Donations to the Foundation are eligible for exemption from federal and NYS income taxes.

“Art Lover, A Biography of Peggy Guggenheim,” by Anton Gill is this month’s choice of the Lake Placid Institute Book Club, which will meet at the Lake Placid Library at 7 p.m., Monday, January 28. Ms. Guggenhiem, was left a small fortune at a young age after her father went down on the Titanic. She soon relocated to Europe, moving about with the American expat group of bohemian writers and artists of the day. She has been dubbed by some as the “mistress of modern art” but was equally well known for her colorful and scandalous life style.

The LPI Book Club usually meets 7 p.m. on the last Monday of the month to discuss books about arts and architecture. All are invited to join in the discussion or to come just listen.
