New Vice President for the Halifax Chapter of CMEA

The Canadian Military Engineers Association (CMEA) is an association that aims to enhance the effectiveness of the CAF’s Military engineers and to allow them to have seamless communication alongside the preservation of Canadian Military Engineer history and to honour traditions that have been in place much longer than you or I have been around. Activated in November of 2000, and recognized as a not for profit organization in 2010, CMEA is a direct product of its predecessor, the Military engineers Association of Canada (MEAC) with roots dating back to 1912. CMEA is looking for a new Vice President for their Halifax Chapter. Some of the duties included for the VP are; to aid and attend events hosted by CMEA Halifax, to liaise with other engineering networks and act as backfill if the President is not available at any specific time. If interested leave a comment.
