Partners In Education Update

Our Partners In Education program is moving right along.  As of October 1, 2010 we have donated $2,800.00 to area schools!



Just a reminder what the Partners In Education program is all about.  We will donate $100 for every child or adult that starts full braces with us to a school of their choice.  These funds will be dispersed every two months and will include the name of the patient(s) who selected that school to receive the donation in their honor.  These donations are earmarked for teachers' use in their classrooms for supplies.

Click on  the pie charts above to see which schools are leading the pack.  It looks like Edythe J. Hayes Middle School in Lexington has the highest amount at $500.00 and Henry Clay High School is next at $200.00.  We have a lot of other area schools that will be benefiting from $100.00 donations.

We are heading in the right direction to reach our goal of $25,000.00 by August 31, 2011!  We'd like to thank all of our patient's for helping us in spreading the word about this program.  We wouldn't be able to reach our goal with out your help!

Partners In Education

Our practice is pleased to announce a new cooperative program we have established called "Partners In Education".  We all value and understand the importance of education for the future success of children in our community.  Our mission is to provide monetary funding directly to local schools that is earmarked for teachers' use in their classrooms for supplies.

We will donate $100 for every child or adult that starts full orthodontic treatment in our office to the school of their choice.  The funds will be dispersed to local schools every two months and will include the name of the patient(s) who selected that school to receive the donation in their honor.  We have set a goal of $25,000 to be donated between September 1, 2010 and August 31, 2011 to area schools. 

All of us here at Bluegrass Orthodontics are excited to begin this new effort and hope our surrounding communities will be also.  We feel that every child deserves a great education and this is a way to give back to the community which has been so good to us.

If you have any questions, in regards to the "Partners In Education" program, please feel free to contact Liz Maskos at 859-268-1190 or via e-mail at kyortho@qx.net.

WELCOME TO THE PONY CLUB!

Lexington's premier orthodontic practice is pleased to welcome you to the Pony Club, a fun and exciting club designed especially for patients in the observation stage of treatment.

The observation phase is an essential part of your orthodontic treatment.  It allows Dr. Ferguson or Dr. Tipton monitor your growth and development at regular intervals to determine when the need for orthodontics will be anticipated. Timing for orthodontic treatment is critical, and regular visits to our office during this phase ensures the proper start to your treatment.

During this phase you will visit our office every 4-6 months and be a member of the Pony Club.  This special club offers you exclusive benefits such as:

**Pony Club membership card  

**Pony Club stuffed animal 

**Office backpack or office t-shirt 

**Ability to collect Horsebucks (see website, http://www.kyorthodocs.com/, for guidelines on Horsebucks)         

Not only will you receive your Horsebucks at your regular visits, but you will also receive other Pony Club special rewards.  We look forward to having a big corral full of little ponies for our Pony Club!
