KEEP MOVing / Senior Veterinarians

Keep MOVing, formerly the Council of Senior Veterinarians, is a group of veterinarians that are either life members, inactive members or retired from veterinary practice. The council meets 2-3 times a year often combining their meetings with a social or educational activity. These events and activities are open to all MVMA members and their guests. Drs. Mary Olson and Jerry Sprau are the current co-chairs of the Senior Vets Council.
