"No Nation Was Ever Hurt By Trade" - Ben Franklin

Thank you for your interest in the WTA !

The Association was established in 1931, with the purpose of promoting international trade, and we are proud to continue that tradition today through our monthly meetings and seminars.

Our Executive Board, Board of Directors, and members are all volunteers who represent every segment of the maritime industry.

Through their combined efforts, we are able to offer extraordinary networking opportunities at our well-attended events, particularly our Annual Banquet (held in September) and our Golf Outing (held in June).  In April 2012 we raised $78,543.00, our most successful year to date, at our Sixth Annual Fundraiser for Autism Speaks. 

We invite you to browse our Events section for further details of upcoming events, and the Photo Gallery to see exactly what you've been missing!
