BOMA happenings: Another successful golf tournament!

Plymouth, MA On Monday, July 14, over 280 golfers participated in BOMA’s Annual Golf Cup Tournament (the 10th consecutive sell-out) which was held at the Pine Hills Country Club in Plymouth, Mass. Tournament participants enjoyed a full day of fun with great food, networking and prizes! This year’s tournament featured a hole-in-one contest, which provided golfers with chance to win a brand new BMW. The putting contest continued to build on its momentum from its first year, drawing significantly more participants. BOMA Boston would like to thank all of the sponsors who made the tournament possible, especially DTZ, the tournament sponsor. BOMA Boston is pleased to announce the 2014 BOMA TOBY (The Outstanding Building of the Year Awards) & Industry Awards Call for Entries are open. Each year, the TOBY & Industry Awards recognize the best and brightest in property management, building operations, and service in the real estate industry. There are 16 categories for TOBY awards, and 9 categories for the Industry Awards.
