Message from Chapter President
Steve Gerald
Whiteford, Taylor & Preston L.L.P.
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great holiday season! I am very excited to begin my two-year term as President of the Chesapeake Chapter. We will pick up where Rob Patrick left off, and continue to move forward. To say the past two years have been atypical would be an understatement. Through these difficult times, Rob ends his term with chapter membership up, with momentum in the chapter’s growth in Richmond, and with new and exciting events like Networking with the Ravens. We thank Rob for his commitment to TMA and to the success of the Chesapeake Chapter.
As I embark on my 2-year term, I'm excited to bring back the chapter's quarterly newsletter. Here, you will find information about TMA, the chapter, events, as well as information about you, the membership. Please contact me at sgerald@wtplaw.com if you have an idea or contribution for a future issue of the newsletter.
We will continue to do our best to provide value for chapter membership, with networking and educational opportunities in Baltimore, Richmond, and DC, open to all professionals in the turnaround, restructuring, and corporate renewal industry. We’ll continue our widely popular coffee hour zooms, as well as our in-person events, with some new ones, like an afternoon of sporting clays and BBQ in Richmond, and events sponsored by our NOW and NextGen committees. We’re also very excited to spend a couple days in June, in Atlantic City, with our friends from the Phily/Wilmington and New Jersey chapters at the 18th Annual TMA Mid-Atlantic Regional Symposium. We also look forward to seeing friends from around the globe at TMA Global's signature annual events, including the Distressed Investing Conference in Las Vegas on February 9-11, 2022.
I think it goes without saying that our in-person events are subject to any government restrictions, CDC guidance, and our commitment to keeping our membership safe. In light of the recent surge of COVID cases, we are erring on the side of caution and refraining from in-person events until our joint event with the Maryland Chapter of the Association for Corporate Growth (ACG Maryland) in February. Until then, we hope you can join us for our upcoming virtual coffee hour with TMA France on January 20 and our virtual wine tasting in February. Please stay tuned for more information on those upcoming events.
I look forward to seeing you and to a great 2022.
- Steve

Message from VP of Membership
Peter Barrett
Kutak Rock LLP
Chapter members and friends:
Membership in the Chesapeake Chapter remains strong and steady. As we hopefully continue to open up and conduct more in-person events, we are looking to increase our membership. In my opinion, the single best thing about TMA is its members. We are a diverse group of sophisticated turnaround professionals with expertise, advice and contacts that are invaluable. More members in our chapter will benefit us all. We look forward to socializing, networking and, importantly, doing business with you in 2022. Please make sure to promptly renew your membership when due to avoid any lapse. And, please consider bringing a colleague to our events in 2022. We can’t wait to see you and let you experience all TMA has to offer our members in Maryland, DC and Virginia.

Message from VP of Women's Networking (NOW)
Rosa Evergreen
Arnold & Porter
What a strange year it has been! I have missed being able to connect with many of you in person and zoom fatigue is real. Looking ahead in 2022, on behalf of the Chesapeake Chapter of TMA NOW (TMA NOW is an affinity group within TMA, created to foster female leadership by creating the premier business development and networking group for women in the turnaround community), we are excited to connect with regional members (e.g., members in the Maryland, Virginia and DC markets) and global TMA members in advancing the mission and goals of TMA NOW in 2022. And we are very much looking forward to being able to connect in 2022 -- hopefully in person. In closing, if there are members interested in being more active in our local TMA NOW Chapter, please reach out to me and we look forward to working together and are excited about the new year.
