Leann sliding through�the wipeout party�

It’s been an exciting summer filled with trips, concerts, and�new experiences! Recently, we went to Philly to check out the�Mets vs. Phillies and take a Duck Tour of the city. The Hot�Topics Group went to the Beacon Theater to see American Idol�

Live. Just about everyone went to see at least one concert at�Bethel Woods. Some of the more recent ones were Lynyrd�Skynyrd, Chicago with Earth Wind and Fire, and Van Halen!�

Dear Reader,�It has been my pleasure to have been the editor of Progressive Times since�its inception in 2007. It is a unique position which has challenged me�to try to encapsulate everything that we strive to accomplish here at�Progressive Health in a few short pages each month. It is with some�sadness I must inform you that I have decided to move on from PHPI and�take on a new vocational challenge. Being the editor of the newsletter�is just one of the many things I will miss from�here when I move on. This is an amazing program�with an awesome group of clients and staff�members all working together so our clients can�enjoy the best that life can offer. I hope we�were able to show you a little bit of what we’re�all about through the pages of Progressive Times�each month. As I depart, I am leaving the�newsletter in good hands. Nicole L. is one of�the hardest working people I know and she will�undoubtedly continue to give you a window into�our program and our people here at Progressive�Health for years to come.�

Thank you for all of the memories,�Tom Dewey�
