2007
"Vineyard Smiles" spent several days this month at the Tisbury School, providing dental check-ups and services to our children, and presenting an educational dental health lesson to our first-grade students.
The program ran very smoothly and was a benefit to many Tisbury families. The success of "Vineyard Smiles" was a result of organized and efficient handling of paperwork, scheduling to accommodate other school programs, and the friendly, professional staff who serviced the children. Thank you to Henrietta McElheny, coordinator, Debbie Simon, educator/dental assistant, and Dr. Ghassan Khoury, the participating dentist.
We appreciate your dedication in working toward the goal of making health care available to all who need it. Thank you to Sarah Kuh and Island Health Inc. for procuring the grant through the Oral Health Foundation, the charitable arm of Delta Dental of Massachusetts, making this program possible. We are all smiles because of what you have given the community.

| Oct 30,2006 Hi Friends:
After our first couple of days with CMOHS on the Island, I just need to
say that YOU ROCK! (as my 8 year-old would say....) We have had nothing but
the most glowing praise from parents and families who have benefitted from your
services on MV. We are really enjoying working with all of the members of
your team and most of all, knowing that kids are (FINALLY) getting the
care they need. Thank you.
