Marine Surveyors To Hold 19th Marine Conference In New York In October
Joseph V. Sheridan, chairman, announced that The National Association of Marine Surveyors (NAMS) will hold their 19th Annual Marine Conference at the Hotel Americana in New York City on Thursday, Friday and Saturday October 20, 21 and 22, 1977.
The three-day seminar on marine surveying and allied topics will be held in conjunction with a meeting of the membership on the morning of Saturday, October 22.
This will mark a new phase in the NAMS series of conferences.
In the past, they were one-day meetings with expert speakers on marine topics that cover the marine survey profession. This year's innovation includes, that in addition to the speakers, the second day will consist of several roundtable meetings where attendees will be able to select from among the topics on the agenda that are of most interest to them. Following brief presentations from the moderator and the panel of speakers, there will be an open meeting for questions from the floor.
NAMS is the professional association of marine surveyors, with members located throughout the United States, Canada, Central America, South America and Europe.
Guests at the Annual Marine Conference are drawn from all facets of the marine and insurance industry and Government.
Any person interested in attending should write to NAMSMarine Conference, P.O. Box 55, New York, N.Y. 10038.
