In late April 2025, TMS hosted the annual ‘Salute To Military Luncheon’ as part of Fleet Week Port Everglades. This annual event at the Lauderdale Yacht Club brings together the local business community with senior and junior officers of the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and U.S. Coast Guard for a networking and information sharing luncheon. This year’s luncheon fell on ‘Take your child to work day’ and a few next generation leaders joined in the event! TMS thanks Rear Admiral Ryan M. Perry for connecting our business community with service members, and appreciates the presentations from Lori Baer of Port Everglades Association and Kathy Metcalf of Chamber of Shipping of America to give service members insight into the maritime sector locally and nationally.
