IMG_6017NEW2.jpgAfter a brief hiatus, there was an expressed interest among risk managers in the region in restarting the RIMS Maritime Chapter. So on April 12th, 2018 an annual general meeting was held with a great turnout (see above) and an election of officers was held. Check out who is representing the Maritime Chapter HERE

We also held a draw for some fabulous prizes for those that attended (see below). Congrats to Michelle Langer and Elle Stephens on their win!!!
