“Mark Twain Health Care District has been supporting diabetes management programs for many years, so having Mr. Savage presenting at Ironstone Vineyards is a perfect compliment to our Mission” said board member Robert Campana. “Childhood diabetes, and even childhood obesity, can lead to devastating results if not managed properly. Dan’s presentation should be both informative and motivating.”
Mr. Savage is currently the Chief of Staff to State Senator Gilbert Cedillo where he supervises both the Capital office and the District office. He also advises the Senator on labor, immigration and health care issues. $25 includes lunch. For reservations, call 754-2604.
