 Spring Meeting for Office & Maintenance Managers at Florian Hall

The Spring Managers Meeting took place at Florian Hall this week to discuss updates in maintenance, compliance, human resources, and marketing departments in addition to the DEI committee and announcements from the President and Vice Presidents of JMC.
