2022 Annual Presidents’ Dinner
2022 Annual Presidents’ Dinner
On September 22nd, most of the presidents of the IIBA Ottawa-Outaouais chapter—present, past and future—got together for our Annual Presidents' Dinner. It was a time of reconnecting, laughter, shared stories and encouragement by a great team of folks committed to the betterment of our IIBA chapter.
Each year the past presidents of the IIBA Ottawa-Outaouais chapter meet to express their support for the current and incoming presidents. This is a long-standing tradition that allows for a smooth transition and helps the incoming president better understand the history and legacy of the chapter.
Thank you for your support!
