MD/DC Chapter News            June  2004 

 

The Maryland/District of Columbia Chapter of ERAPPA held our spring 2004 meeting March 26, 2004, at Towson University in the Johnny Unitas Stadium Complex   Eighty-one members and business partners were present for the regular business meeting and the educational sessions.  The topics of these sessions were:  

Ø      Reliability Centered Maintenance – Presented by Alan Pride, CMRP form The Smithsonian Institution

Ø      Diversity in the Workplace – Presented by Aimee Hill, Hill Consulting

Ø      Campus Master Planning - Presented by David Mayhew, AIA from Towson University 

Following the meeting and lunch, many of the attendees took advantage of the perfect weather to tour the new Unitas Stadium Complex with Scott Guckert, the Towson University project manager for the job.  We would like to thank all of our educational presenters for a great job. 

The next event for the MD/DC region is Rocky Gap IV, the annual two-day retreat that will be held June 24th and June 25th 2004, at the Rocky Gap Lodge and Conference Center near Cumberland, Maryland. The topic for this year’s retreat is the KIA Creativity Index presented by Jack W. Johnson.  The past three retreats have been very advantageous to the attendees who have returned to their respective institutions or businesses with tools that can be put in place very quickly.  They have also gained contacts and friendships through the networking that occurs throughout the entire retreat.  Please visit our web site to get additional details concerning this outstanding program. 

The chapter is looking forward to assisting the host committee for the 2004 APPA Educational Facilities Leadership Forum.  This event will be held from July 25, 2004, through July 27, 2004, in Washington, DC.   For more information, please visit the APPA website.
