BOMA Boston Update: BOMA Golf, & BOMI Classes

Boston, MA The Annual BOMA Golf Tournament was held on Monday, July 10^th at Pinehills Golf Club. Around 300 BOMA members and guests took over both the Jones and Nicklaus courses for a round of 18. The day included a Hole in One from Chris Dlugolecki with IMG Technologies and the gracious donation of the 50/50 winnings to our charitable partner by winner, Steven Gilmore Jr., with ServiceMaster by Gilmore. The tournament was a success thanks to our sponsors, in particular our platinum sponsor, C&W Services!

At the July BOMA Boston board meeting, the BOMA board members and committee co-chairs took part in a fun volunteer opportunity with Building Impact in support of Bridge Over Troubled Waters. Members put together hydration kits and wrote uplifting notes to the youth at Bridge. It was a great way to give back to our charitable partner!
