Dear ARA Members,

Please join us for an exciting program in 2023.

The ARA Luncheons are scheduled to be on the Alcon Campus on March 6th, June 5th, September 11th, and December 4th  (the Annual Holiday Lupper).

Our first ARA luncheon in 2023 will be held on March 6th, in the Alcon Crossroads Conference Center (old Alcon cafeteria).  An ARA member, Tom McDonald, PhD, is returning to speak to us about his book in progress on the first 50-year history of Alcon. His presentation at the luncheon will address the second 25-year history of Alcon (1972- 1997).

Sign-in will start at 11:30 and we’ll wrap up by 4:00.

Additional details on this event will be provided later.

If you want to attend, please make your reservations no later than February 20th. You can email us at ARA-RSVP@alcon-ara.com or leave a voicemail on our Alcon number, 817-615-2875, to make your reservation. We need to know how many of you are attending this catered event so we can accommodate everyone.

As usual for our quarterly luncheons, there is no charge for members and $10 for guests. If you haven’t paid your $10 dues for 2023, you can do so when you sign in or send your check to:
