IFMA Boston 's 10th Annual Schmooze Cruise - Still going strong
More than 250 IFMA Boston members and colleagues took to the harbor on July 19th for our 10th Annual Schmooze Cruise. While the week had seen record temperatures and off the charts humidity, the weather broke just in time providing a perfect night for a cruise, which left from Fan Pier. This year the guests were treated to a bigger and better boat, The Freedom, to accommodate the increase in attendance, which gains popularity each year. The boat sailed to Charlestown, past the USS Constitution and then out past Spectacle Island, a beautiful setting to enjoy the great mix of Facilities Managers and supporters of the built environment. A big thank you to Ellen Rothman and Ana Gannon for co-chairing the event and to their entire committee!—The Freedom.
