Hello MPI Ottawa Community!

The May edition of MPI BREAKS is here, and we’re focusing on K: Knowledge.

First, mark your calendar for the next MPI Ottawa Chapter events:

CAMP MPI – June 12, 2025 (ALL DAY EVENT)
Thank you to our Event Partners: Tourism Outaouais and Fairmont Chateau Montebello.

Join us for a day of activities, fun challenges, and relaxation! All while the board takes a moment to recognize the impact of the incredible volunteers that are the driving force behind everything our Chapter is able to accomplish! And, if you can accommodate it, we will be spending the night for the very reduced rate of $150.

I ask, in advance, that you do not judge my (lack of) golf skills.

Shuttle services will be provided to go to Fairmont Chateau Montebello, as well, there will be one return shuttle service on June 12 and one on June 13.
