President's message: Summer events are planned

May 14, 2015 - Connecticut

Ronald Goodin, Fletcher Thompson, Inc

Summer is here. Once again we seem to have skipped right over spring and are becoming a two-season year with a few really great days between. The sudden change is I'm sure causing calls in from your building tenants because the HVAC mode is just catching up to the calendar.
I'd like to start by congratulating my southern BOMA brother, Victor DeCicco on a very well-run MAC. The conference was well attended, well presented and an enjoyable time, even if work did get in the way sometimes.
Our last monthly meeting dealt with issues to understand during construction projects. A lot of great information sharing occurred. May's event is our ever-popular Nine/Wine/Dine, where golf becomes secondary to a great multi-course meal and paired wines. It's not a bad way to shake off the winter "golf rust" either! Evidence that business may indeed be coming back to pre-depression levels - we have sold out. We thank our sponsors: RM Bradley, Otis Elevators, Securitas, DTZ and the PAC Group. Hoping for good weather like we've been having.
Please hold June 24th open for a Happy Hour tour of the new 777 Main residential tower coming on line. Very happy to see this adaptive reuse project bringing "feet to the street" after hours and on the weekend and hearing from Bruce Becker about his second major investment in our state,.
Plan your family vacation around our premier July 7th traditional scramble golfing event. If recent indications continue, we'll sell out quickly, so get your foursome together. The scholarships generated from the event's precedes helped some students attend our high-performance educational series which kicked off last month - more classes to follow.
As always, check the website often to keep up with all things BOMA. Have a great summer, and remember to make a difference!

Ron Goodin is the president of BOMA Greater Hartford, and is with Fletcher Thompson Architects, Hartford, Conn.
