A message from the Great Plains Chapter President:
Let us get excited for 2025! My Name is James Bouckaert. I have been in the industry for 13 years and pride myself on being restorative. I have been part of ICRI Great Plains for 10 years. This organization has really helped me grow and learn in this specialized industry.
The ICRI Great Plains Chapter plans to hold 3 technical seminars this year; one in each our are Chapter's largest markets; Omaha NE, Kansas City KS, and St. Louis Mo. We will also have our annual golf outing and holiday party. We are excited to engage existing members and for the addition of new members and future opportunities. I am excited to continue to push the Great Plains Chapter forward and create a sustainable future beyond 2025. Keep an eye out for updates and new meetings. We welcome all professionals in the industry to join these technical seminars to learn and meet others in the industry.
