Kansas City, MO – Back by popular demand at the North American Veterinary Conference in Orlando, Florida, the WITNESS® the Positive contest. This contest allowed participants to observe the ease of use of the WITNESS® HW product first hand.  In addition, Synbiotics will donate to Wayside Waifs, an animal shelter in the Kansas City area, one well for each participant plus the matching amount of wells of ViraCHEK® FeLV.  This year eight kits worth over $2500 will be donated.  Synbiotics thanks participants for their support of this worthy cause.  The lucky winners who selected positive samples and each won one of 12 iPod® Nanos® included: LaDawn Scott, S. Cynthia Fiore-Brooks, Chad Ackerman, Kathleen Nyland, Katherine Devore, Jessica Leeman, Austin Browning, Susan Woodman, Kristin Husband, Mike Giusti, Jeff McDonald and Jennifer Zulick. 

Visitors to the Synbiotics booth also had the opportunity to sign up for the WITNESS® Protection Program offered through the new online ordering site, buyWITNESS.com.  Thanks to this new e-commerce site, not only are WITNESS® tests easy to run, but they are easier-than-ever to order.  The WITNESS® line of Rapid Immuno Migration (RIMTM), room temperature storage kits, includes accurate and convenient tests for HW, CPV, FeLV, Relaxin and LH.  Benefits of the WITNESS® Protection Program are: protection from high prices, ordering convenience and eligibility for future rewards programs.  Individuals who created a buyWITNESS.com account during NAVC were automatically eligible for STARBUCKS® gift card hand outs during the show and also entered into a random drawing for one of three Netbook computers.  The lucky computer winners were: Drs. Pat Clark, Andrea Fochios and Mitchel Bendit.  Congratulations to these individuals and thank you to all who participated.
