The Heartland Study Club – a professional dental organization –welcomed Medal of Honor recipient Sergeant Peter C. Lemon as keynote speaker at the organization’s annual Year End Celebration, a social and dinner event held May 23 at the Fargo Air Museum.

“Peter C. Lemon’s presentation reflected the commitment to excellence and service to others that our members live out in their professional lives, “said Dr. Michael Noffze, the group’s director. “He’s obviously quite a hero and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate the end of the academic year and kick off the Memorial Day weekend for our members.”

Members were honored at the event for their professional contributions. Carrie Orn was named Clinician of the Year, Dr. Darold Opp won Outstanding New Member and Dr. Robert Bond, Dr. Terry Moe, Dr. Daren Sullivan were recognized for Excellence in Comprehensive Dentistry.

The group meets throughout the academic year and participation offers dental professionals from North Dakota, Minnesota and South Dakota the opportunity to network with their colleagues and meet all of the Continuing Dental Education requirements as mandated by State Dental Boards.
