The Grand Celebration: Commemorating 100 Years of Chiropractic

Just How Big Is Our Centennial?

By Editorial Staff
Chiropractic has a deeper meaning than can be expressed in a few words. Every member of the profession has their own heart-felt definition of what it is to be a chiropractor. Each DC understands the commitment, the dedication and the sacrifice required in a world of fast pain relief, drugs, and quick fix, big cost surgery.

Our Chiropractic Centennial is not simply one group celebrating a small aspect of the way the chiropractic profession has served humanity over the past hundred years. It is a time for every doctor, every student, every assistant, and every patient to join together and commemorate what chiropractic means to each of us, and to all of us.

Our Chiropractic Centennial has only one theme: "The Grand Celebration: Commemorating 100 Years of Chiropractic." But there are many facets to the celebration of this event.

DCs must strive to motivate members of their local chiropractic societies, associations, and community organizations to get involved in the profession's Centennial. Our patients have obviously benefitted a great deal from the quality care they have received. Those who haven't yet sought chiropractic care have profited from the influence of a profession that, by our very existence, has kept medicine from turning health care into any more of a drug and surgery nightmare than it already is. The public has slowly but surely heard our message and has seen the wisdom.

The Grand Celebration begins on Founder's Day, September 18, 1994. This will be a year-long celebration that will include a celebration in Washington, D.C. July 5-9, 1995, and culminate in a celebration in Davenport, Iowa September 13-18, 1995.

Soon, you will be given the opportunity to be involved in all aspects of this once-in-a-lifetime event. Be watching, as the details are finalized and presented.
