2016 Summer Meeting Highlights
Fantastic Summer Meeting with Friends and Colleagues
The Ritz Carlton Lodge at Reynolds Plantation served as the great family oriented venue that our GSOMS members and families enjoyed for our late summer meeting. It was a last hurrah for those families with children returning to school and for those members without children the Ritz was a quiet getaway oh so close by. Over 110 OMS’s joined this meeting with spouses, guests, speakers and exhibitors, so overall a big turnout that sold out our room block really quickly. As always the Ritz gave us the 5-star treatment.
