TMRA’s Annual Meeting at the Grand Galvez in Galveston this week was a wonderful time for members to connect with old friends and make new ones. During Tuesday’s General Session, members enjoyed key insights on the state of TMRA industries, including a legislative panel discussion with Ty Embrey, Lloyd Gosselink; Mance Zachary, Vistra; and Mike Nasi, Jackson Walker.
